At this rate he’s getting a gram of cocaine and a threesome with my best friend, I am all out of sensible. @ComtesseDeSpair Grin

I'm buying mine a food challenge Grin

Essentially a massive platter of BBQ foods; ribs, brisket, pulled pork, sausages etc.

He's such a dustbin he will love it!

What about getting him 12 days of gin advent calendar the one with proper miniatures cost £39.95 😘

A 1 gallon homebrew starter kit

I've got mine this year and others, fancy willy glasses. You put them in the freezer so a diagonal half of the glass is ice. Looks fancy and he says makes whimsy taste better.

Some whisky stones so as not to dilute whisky.

Fancy Patagonia shirt/jumper/hat.

Nice gloves.

A hot air boot drier.

Caviar spoon and chiller set.

Jo Malone scent.

Nice iPad case.

Flannel pjs.

Mine is getting an in shower shaving mirror and waterproof blue tooth speaker. He is also getting a flight simulation experience.

That's it, often I end up buying things for the sake of it but decided this year not to get any filler.

Do a gin tour at a nearby distillery. Get him a bottle of their gin and tickets for a tour and tasting. I did a local beer tour and tasting - really interesting.

If he works in an office -a nice framed photo of his family/desktop calendar of family photos (maybe a bit late)

This sounds like my DP!

So far over the years I’ve got -
Fluffy dressing gown
Good quality winter pjs
Slipper boots - He’d never owned a pair of slippers in his life until I got him these and he’s lives in them!
Big bottle of his favourite whisky
After shave he loves but would never justify to spend on himself
Cheese board with a drawer with cheese knives in

I’ve been trying to rack my brain this year as I’m running out of ideas!

Best received gift I gave to my husband last year was a medal hanger. He has just started doing 10m races and this had hooks for the medals, clips for the racebibs and a chalkboard for personal best times.
He actually teared up on opening it. Thouroughly reccomend for anyone with a sporty partner

@gingergittable I love the idea of fancy willy glasses!

gingergittable · 17/12/2019 21:16

@DonPablo eek! Putting dh's willy in a frozen glass probably wouldn't make a very good Xmas present!!

DP is Mr practical, and we are in a fortunate position to be able to buy what we want as we want it.
The only thing he mentioned when I asked what he’d like was a certain type of gardening glove.
I’ve got those plus
Slippers, for some reason he’d wear is old ones until they drop to bits Xmas Confused
Single malt whisky
Hotel chocolat dark chocolate baton library
Hori hori trowel
A shave cream and an aftershave balm he likes
Good quality dead heading snips
Sharpening tool for secateurs
Wallet ninja
Leather holder for the secateurs I bought him a couple of years ago
2 kilo box of wine gums
A magazine subscription
I’ve also got a pack of monkey key caps for to put in his cracker. He can never find the right key so they should help Xmas Grin
