Who doesn't drink. He'll be travelling by train so trying to come up with some ideas for small enough to fit in a stocking, useful gifts.

Any ideas welcome Smile

iTunes vouchers, supermarket vouchers or vouchers for Nando's or something. Pop them in a stocking with a bath bomb and a few bats of chocolate

Supermarket voucher is a good idea.

Don't think I'd embarrass a teen with condoms unless you know the stocking is opened in private.

Mine liked. Mini torch, food saver clips, pack of batteries, usb stick.

I will give my DS some of this probably:
A bunch of concert tickets or IOUs for them.
Miniature bottles of Molton Brown
Molton Brown aftershave
Voucher for Hotel Chocolat (for refills for his Velvetiser!!!)
Tesco voucher
A meat mallet (he's a bit of a foodie and a carnivore so I know he would use it and find it amusing!)
Some chocolate

My list makes him sound like a pretentious prig but, honestly, he's lovely. He just likes what he likes, lol
