Your Next Gift

If ever you've wanted to be a land owner, but not been too keen on the fact that it costs an arm and a leg, then this delightfully silly, yet nevertheless legitimate title deed is the answer. And of course it makes a great and original present. The title of Laird means land owner, it's a title that can be used by men or women.

This title document will certify that you (or the lucky recipient if you're feeling generous) will become a genuine land owner of a part of the Glencairn estate in the Scottish Highlands, i.e. a 'Laird of Glencairn'. You'll receive a registration code, which you register online or by post, and then an official title certificate and a 'Proof of Title' card. Once you've registered, you are welcome to visit the area where your land is located, where you can pace your boundaries (which admittedly won't take long as each plot of land only measures 1ft Square). You even have free access to the Laird's Retreat on the banks of Loch Riddon. The Retreat boasts excellent camping and free fishing rights (Lairds must bring their own equipment). It's a great bit of fun, you really will own a chunk of Scotland, and not only that, it's actually helping to preserve areas of land in the Scottish Highlands.

The area of Glencairn is near to the oldest Stone Age site in Britain - the Grey Cairns of Camster, as well as the Long Cairn of Camster which was used for many centuries as a burial chamber for the first Highland Clan Chiefs. Thankfully the likelihood of border disputes and clan wars is minimal, and there's nothing like the knowledge that you are a legitimate landowner (though you may feel moved to join the Countryside Alliance and wear tweed in the privacy of your own home).

Features:

- The opportunity to become a Laird of Glencairn in the Highlands of Scotland.
- Ownership of a square foot of land in Glencairn, in the beautiful Scottish Highlands.
- A Map of Glencairn.
- A presentation certificate and pen.
- A registration code so you can officially register your be-titled status.
- Registration can be made online or by post.
- Post-registration you will receive a certificate of your official title and a 'Proof of Title' card.
- The 'Proof of Title' card allows access to the Laird's retreat on the banks of Loch Riddon in Argyll, offering excellent camping and fishing.
- An information booklet on the Laird's Retreat.
- Information about the environmental and conservational benefits of owning land in Glencairn.
- The gift is presented in an attractive presentation tin with a tartan sleeve.

Ever felt like fireworks have just got a bit same-old? These lanterns have an air of elegance and grace that no Roman Candle could possibly begin to match. For a long-lasting, graceful and enchanting moment outdoors, Light a Lanterns is your answer.

These large paper lanterns are fireproof with a wick suspended beneath them. When the wick is lit, they are filled with hot air from the flame and are ready to sail majestically up to 1000 feet into the night sky within 30 seconds!

Originally thought up by the Chinese over 2000 years ago as a warning signal (due to their ability to be seen for miles), paper lanterns gradually became a part of festival and ceremonial practices across the Far East.

Well now we can enjoy them too, and whether you're planning on using them for a wedding, a party, or just because they're simply beautiful, there's no doubt they'll bring a certain spark to any event.

Each pack (comes in packs of 4 or 10) comes with a marker pen so you can write a personalised message or wish on the lantern before it disappears into the night sky amongst the stars.

Oh why do we LOVE Gift Certificates? Well not only is it great for those last minute procrastinators, but it also means the recipient gets to chose the gift that they REALLY want!

Looking for an "Inspired Gift"? UNICEF is the leading children's organisation, reaching children in more than 150 less-developed countries around the world. They work with local communities, organisations and governments to make a lasting difference to children's lives. UNICEF believes that every child should have clean water, food, health care, education, and a safe environment in which to grow up. UNICEF is not funded by the UN. Instead, they rely on voluntary donations to fund their work for children worldwide and raises funds for these programmes through donations, the sale of cards and gifts, partnerships with companies and special events.

If you're looking for a gift that will make a difference, then why not "Buy a Goat"? Buying a goat will provide improved nutrition and income generation for a family in Niger or Malawi. Buying a goat will not only help improve nutrition for a whole family - through providing milk and cheese, the goat will also help provide a source of fertiliser for the vegetable patch helping to produce a better crop!. What's more, there can be milk and cheese left over for selling in the local market and thereby improving the income for the family which will help provide for other essentials.

We think its a very thoughtful gift to buy not only for the family that will receive the goat but also for the person or organisation donating the gift. It certainly is a gift that will make a difference!
