Aviation gift ideas

Hi guys,

Slightly different question for you all...
With my imminent birthday quickly creeping up on me I am being asked for gift ideas from my family. Now usually if I ever want something I just go buy it which makes this whole birthday gifts a little tricky. I hoping that you'll be able to suggest some aviation related gifts that I'll either need, useful to have, or just good to have in the bag.

I'm currently learning to fly (PPL) and have just started the navigation section so I have the flight computer, ruler, protractor, watch (a £15 cheapie), and theory book. Is there anything else that would be useful to have? Is it worth getting a plotter in addition to a protractor?

Apart from a the theory book, is there anything I'll need for the radiotelephony section?

Is it worth getting the Pooley Flight Guide? There's a copy of one at the flying school so I guess I could just use that whenever necessary.

Thanks for your ideas.
Stuart
