    I'm hoping that someone out there may have come across a website selling the bestest present for a five year old nephew, one that makes his eyes shine brighter than the christmas tree. All suggestions much appreciated, reason applies. I live in hope.

    Tell his mam to get him something from you when she's buying santa's present. I am the ultimate lazy shopper....

    Cheers for the response guys. I know it's early days but shopping for presents is not my forte and Blitzkrieger I'd nearly need to be behind bullet proof glass before I'd take your dangerous advice.

    You give her the money!!!

    Beware though, Santa's present would be FAR better than your one!!!

    Pats self on back repeatedly.

    Bought all my presents (except wife) last week. This is the most organised I've ever been. Did smyths and mahon point in one day and had it all sorted.

    Pats own back again

    Got those magnetic lego type thingys for two of my nephews (think there called magnext or something) and by the look of em I might get some myself. Look perfect for a 5 year old. Start at about 20 quid or so.

    I'm a primary school teacher and in my experience the junior infant boys are cracked into transformers, Ben 10, farm machinery/animals, dinosaurs, cars, lego.
    Hope that helps a little.:)
