	I hope you don't mind ZZzzz but I have stolen your idea. I was racking my brains to think what I could get daughter for her 50th birthday. (How can I possibly have a daughter that old?) I have just finished wrapping 50 individual gifts which has taken me forever. I will be seeing her tonight and will give them to her then. Thanks for the idea. :-D

	SufolkVera, you are more than welcome, I hope she liked the gifts but I can't take the credit for the idea, it was my cousins in Australia that gave me the idea after they bought our Uncle 70 presents beginning with the letter E.

	When is his birthday? It would be great if you could get a film of him opening the gifts. Lizx

	Liz. I dug it up again to thank you all for helping. His birthday is on 6th November but I shan't be wrapping them up, there are to many and some are really small, I shall be putting them in a big box the night before so he can have a rummage. :-D

	Don't blame you for not wrapping them, will you get some shredded paper or similar to hide the gifts in? It will be fun watching him rummage, Lizx
