    I think that would be an awesome pressie for your parents. Maybe some others have some ideas, but, in my humble opinion, I think that a trip, for New Years, is a cool idea.

    Fly them to Paris! Ryan Air does like cheap tickets. Make it a joint thing for a weekend trip. Sort out accommodation too. :)

    well ive looked into paris.

    bung them on eurostar (my dad wont fly) on the 31st, bring them back on the 2nd. cost £178
    then gotta find a hotel (no idea how to do that!) and sum spending money (how much?!)

    im gonna do it i think! ive got a fair bit of money this year and they always take us to good places so it seems a nice thing to do for them! :)

    I'd look at the Euro Star website again. They usually have a link saying where you can stay.

    try http://www.expedia.co.uk too for ideas..and http://www.lastminute.com for hotel places.

    I'd reckon maybe 200 quid for spending money..a treat from you, they'll probably bring their own pennies too.
