What can I get DH?

[EElisavetaofBelsornia]

He is SO difficult to buy a present for. He is fussy about clothes (though a cashmere jumper hit gold last year), doesn't do aftershave much, doesn't drink and shouldn't eat sugar - diabetic. He likes a good read but we have just got the last two Shardlake books on kindle and as we have busy lives this will take a while. He is a keen cyclist and likes music but he introduces me to music, I wouldn't know what to get. Anyone got any ideas? Gifts that have gone down well with your difficult-to-buy-for menfolk? Thank you!

I'm getting my hard to buy for dp some fancy headphones and the new Neil gaiman hardback

[Mrsgrumble]

That's a tough one.

Good face cream - clarins Etc

Coffee machine

Tickets to a show

Weekend away in nice hotel

[StepfauxWife]

I've got a difficult DH to buy for too so watching with interest.

How about a Spotify premium subscription?

[StepfauxWife]

I also bought DH a card wallet to take out when he is cycling. And a little saddle bag so he can take out his phone, keys etc.

[emmelinelucas]

I have got mine

A Dads Army t shirt

Velvet loafers/slippers

A model of an enigma machine

A tiny ship in a bottle

He is doing well this year

I have v tricky husband who has everything just about ,and a quite tricky SIL - this year am buying DH an alpaca bobble hat and a good Japanese kitchen knife ( he does like nice knives!) and best buys from last couple of years- really good leather gloves and nice leather wallet
one of my best buys from years ago was a silver engraved money clip

[FriskyMare]

I have bought my cycling mad DH a new cycling jacket and a poster of all the winners of the Tour de France we both love watching the tour which I will get framed and a Coronation St jigsaw cos I went on the tour today and saw it and wanted it for me

[RunawayReindeer]

Oooh mine is quite specific so I have new golf shoes, a golf club cover hat thing in an animal shape a golf watch thing. (technical terms obvs...)
And then a big scrapbook filled from the kids with pictures, photos, drawings etc ticket stubs :)

[antimatter]

newest Kindle?

[MrsBungle]

I need ideas too. The only thought I've had so far is golfing lessons. Dh doesn't golf but he's mentioned wanting to give it a go! and there's a groupon deal for 60% off

[RunawayReindeer]

Might be worth getting some driving range tokens if he wants to give it a go bungle golf lessons are good for perfecting swing etc but driving range is popular whatever the weather and ability ;)

[MrsBungle]

Thanks runaway can you tell I'm clutching at straws?!

[RiseAndWhine]

have a look at notonthehighstreet.com I got a few bits from there for DH, also got him a GPS watch (he is a runner) that will satisfy his techy needs. A cordless drill to satisfy his 'I am a man' needs and some books to satisfy his 'I like knowledge' need. How about a magazine subscription? I got runners world but there are lots of cycling ones - have a search online for special offers though - NEVER pay full price!

[suspiciousandsad]

Bose Bluetooth travel speakers.

[ThinkIveBeenHacked]

Dvd box set?

DH loves Walking Dead so ive ordered him the Walking Dead Monopoly
No idea what else!

[agoodbook]

Its horrible trying to think of things -my DH tends to buy himself most of the things he really wants - he's just banned from buying anything in November/December.
And then its his birthday at the beginning of February !
DD did buy him a swiss army thing that was the size and shape of a credit card which he likes

[BikeRunSki]

something from Rapha - kit for the discerning cyclist.

[barnet]

I second Spotify premium
And quality knife !

[JoyceDivision]

I've just booked tickets for Lee Stewarts tour next year for dh's christmas present! Can't wait!

[DaisyFlowerChain]

Decent headphones if he's into music. Magazine subscription? Does he have an iPad or Nexus?

Men are much harder to buy for than women, DH adds items to his Amazon wish list from September onwards to give me a clue and I add extras. Tempted by the Amazon Fire TV as a surprise.

[Bowlersarm]

A go pro?

[AgentProvocateur]

I'm getting myself DH a Sonos system - he listens to a lot of music. It's dear, but he's worth it.

[HexBramble]

Tickets to see Spandau Ballet on tour nowt to do with me wanting to go oh no not at all

[DamselNotInHerDress]

I'm getting dp a docking station for his new iPhone so we can listen to our music in the kitchen on one device rather than having to have 2 (out current one only supports our old ones).
This is the perfect present because 1) he hasn't already bought one and 2) I really wanted it
I will get a few other presents from the dc that will go under the tree aswell, some fancy shaving balm, an autobiography, some new pint glasses and bottles from the local brewery and a cookbook.
