Singing is a great present ... get a ipad as well as you then have your own karaoke system to hand. Girlfriend: Crumplerbag, Cowboys Boots from FORZIERI (Reduced), Moroccan Weekend Break in late Feb Son 1: Three pairs of Etnies shoes ... cheaper than two ... weird. (No car for you until you get that promotion sunshine!) Son 2: He had Villa Tickets plus also gets a great pair of John White Suede Chelsea Boots. Very lush and a Black Smart car Son 3: He had Villa Tickets plus he gets a pair of Vans SK8 plus a new Smart Car as he reads on here ... and it's pink I think i am getting a Diawa 12/13 ft Tournamentt Pro Feeder rod and a double handled Diawa 3012D ... if i am not then the Moroccan holiday gets cancelled and your smart car remains pink plus you get two flurry dice
Tweed is a ladies perfume but i see what you mean a nice pleated twin set ... a very smart business women
I know very well how you are feeling mate! You will probably become a better Dad from it, I know I did.
I bought my wife singing lessons a couple of years back from a local teacher who came recommended. After her first lesson he returned my money in the post in full on the grounds that he was a singing teacher not a miracle worker! What I did buy her last year was swimming lessons where our 3 girls had been for a term - as she could doggy paddle but had always felt bad about not being able to swim properly and would not jump into the pool from the side. She renewed again after Easter and then again in the summer and within the year she has been going has just got her 600m freestyle and has learned to dive in to the deep end of the pool (notice that I am having to word everything carefully to avoid smutty responses) Best present she reckons she ever received, but I would argue that the Kindle I bought her for her last birthday was an even better one from my perspective!!!
QPR (OK, Ipswich Town but I'm trying) Debbie is getting 2 Metallica CDs, a Pantera CD (the metal phase always returns this time of year), a Joy Division CD (she didn't know it existed but has more albums than they've released!), a Triggs book (see man + dog thread), some Ana Sui perfume and Swarovski jewellery (mans best friend because it solves so many problems). Usually do something soppy (poem, picture message, hand made card) but haven't had any eureka moments. Had it mostly delivered to my Mum's so the lack of parcels arriving has her worried!!!
All sorted. The wife gets large bottle of Chanel Coco. Girlfriend gets large bottle of Chanel No. 5. Boyfriend gets a bottle of Matey and a Cissé hi-tec wrist support.
Well if anyone wants to get themselves a little gift for Christmas, I highly recommend the 'Band of Brothers' and 'Pacific' box-sets. Excellent WW2 series, only a tenner each in ASDA, and online. Well worth it.
I took one of my wife's friends shopping with me for her present...depressing that her friend knew exactly what she wanted and I hadn't a clue! Got a bag of some sort that apparently she'll love.
Bought the wife a couple of tickets to the Good Food Show last Christmas, imagining she would take my daughter. Instead I find myself going to the NEC a couple of weeks ago. Exhausting, but got some stunning black pudding.
They are a venerable black hole, anything I ask for and it's somewhere in her bag. I wouldn't be surprised if Lord Lucan was in there somewhere...
Got MrQPRBeth....a Jedi robe lounging around cape-y thing, with matching fleecy lounging around trouser/tracksuit thingy. Some "Who's the Daddy" Boxer shorts....a couple of funny books, A bottle of Claret and a bottle of port, the most expensive Waitrose can supply, and the Autobiography of Danii Minogue.... He has got me the BBC Olympic box set. The Sunday Times Olympic Book (I know because I bought them)...I haven't got anything else, because that is all I bought myself Daughter 1...we have bought them a video of their collapsed sewer, (don't ask)...and it cost £500 Daughter 2....Running stuff and money and a promise of a computer for college in the New Year
