What would you like your husband to buy you for Christmas?

All ideas welcome - I'm sure I'm not the only husband struggling for ideas!

Thanks

I wouldn't care less what the present was as long as dh had thought of it rather than me having to supply ideas Grin We only exchange small gifts....actually bit of a lie. I get a small gift, he gets several gifts. Bitter...me. Never!

DH has bought me some lovely clothes before,not always what I'd choose but often great. Feels nice that he's taken the time to think about what I'd like and what suits me.

Wives? I am not a wife. Does that mean I can't have a present?

But you can't assume that all 'wives' want the same thing! We are individuals. I want Pikmin 3 for the wii u. Anyone else want that?

I do not want random make up, smellies, jewellery, clothes, underwear etc. Those are the sorts of things I prefer to choose for myself.

What does your wife like? What are her interests? Can you ask her what she would like?

Am I only to be defined by my legal status in relation to a man? Really? In 2013?

I wouldn't want you to waste lots of money on things I don't particularly like or use. I requested stocking filler items such a few books and items from Lakeland, nothing totaling more than a £30 spend on the understanding that my main present is a major splurge in the January sales

Funnily enough when I became married the things I'd like for a gift didn't change?
Buy her a copy of "wife work"

I want a Sony digital SLR camera from Jessops, complete with battery +spare, lens filter, memory card, spare lenses and camera bags.

Have taken DD2 into the shop and got a print off but I can tell it will take more than that for the hints to sink in. (Any ideas.)

I am tempted to just go out any buy it as I've wantwd a camera for years and am now in a position to buy this myself with my own money. Ive no idea what else I'd want for Chrustmas thoygh.
