Hi Rach, is this definitely going ahead again this year??
I'd forgotten about buying stuff for the kids until this weekend, so I wanted to check before I went and raided ASDA (... raiding in a "paying for the items" kind of way..)

Yes we are Lou, thank you for the reminder!
Basically the guidelines/rules whateer are:
New items only, preferably still packaged (or BNIB in ebay-speak);
No food items;
No soft toys (I think it's to do with infection and allergen control, or maybe it's to stop people smuggling crack inside teddy bears.)
for DVDs - it's safest to go for U certificates.
Teenagers generally get overlooked, so anthing for this age group would be particularly suitable. And no, a crate of 20:20 and some Rizzlas is not exactly appropriate.

I will try and send something for this again. I could do with an address to post it to though as I am not coming to FabFeb. Will have a look round tesco tomorrow to see if I can find anything suitable.

I'm not coming to Birmingham until the saturday, due to another commitment I have made. I'll be there for when we all meet though. It won't be too late for me to donate the gifts, will it?

Marvellous.
I apologise for the lack of apostrophe in "Childrens". I'll amend it. It should go after 'Childrens' right? Coz it is the hospital of the children.

No Teenager is bestowed with the skills to Roll a 20:20 Bottle inside a "Fatty boombatty"
These skills must be learned!

KIWI please!
