Teddies galore
Teddies, teddies and nothing but lovely, cuddly teddies. They're the perfect present for people of all ages, but especially the youngsters. Have them personalised with a name or a message of your choice. They come in girly pink, baby blue or au natural (that's brown to you and me!)

Hunt down a bargain
Here's a bargain section (rastrillo) that's worth a look - and it's in a furniture shop! Selling mainly large colonial style items (days of the Raj darlink!) that wouldn't fit in your suitcase - you can find smaller items that would give your home a different look. So have a wander around and get some decorating ideas that your other half can put into practice as soon as you get home!

Fair trade for all
