What you getting other half? I want to spend maybe... up to £150, but then I also have his birthday in January too.

Thing is, he has an xbox but doesn't really play it, has an ipod, can't see any tickets for any bands... help!

What else is he into? What does he do at the weekends?

Comes to see me? lol.

We're both in twenties so he goes out into town with friends/me occassionally. We do a fair bit with my kids on alternate weekends.

He doesn't read. Watches a lot of dvds (but buys most of what he wants.) Goes to the gym.

I have got DP a pair of trainers, some avon aftershave & a remote control scooby car (private joke! lol)

how about a day trips activity or something?

Can I get him a hobby? lol

Was thinking originally a wii but I don't think he'll play it on his own and his best friends have one and so do I. And I'm hoping to coerce him into living with me in the not too distant future so we won't need two

A watch or wallet? I bought DH a nice Mulberry wallet when we were first together and he still loves it (brown leather so it looks nice now it's all battered). Is he into designer names? Paul Smith have a good website.

Message

Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face,

, type [smile] or :)
For a big grin,

, type [grin] or :o
For a wink,

, type [wink]
For a shocked face,

, type [shock]
For an angry face,

, type [angry]
For an embarrassed face,

, type [blush]
For a sad face,

, type [sad] or :(
For an envious face,

, type [envy]
For a sceptical face,

, type [hmm]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
