am i being unreasonable when i buy this nice boat for DH for a joint birthday and Christmas present. It's not his birthday until July but i know he'd just love this but i'm not sure if i could justify the expense of two big presents especially given the current economic situation.

AIBU?

Fine I'm sure but will it fit in your back yard?

Go for it - I'm sure he's worth it...

Tricky to budget for when no price actually given.:)

No problem.

I'm sure he'll be happy with the joint present.

Happy sailing!

I think i could moor it at the local harbour but do you think pedlars will have a big enough ribbon to wrap around it.

i was thinking as it had been out of commission for a number of years that maybe £75 would be reasonable.

Nah - the jet on EBay is much better value for money at £95,000 !!!

My Dad served on this ship during the Falklands war so if you want it you'll have to go head 2 head with me in a bidding war!

Does it come with a few sailors thrown in? Xmas Smile

blushingm · 01/12/2010 22:16

what about the armoured cars? You couldd put the keys in the crackers you have on christmas day

RorysRacingReindeer · 02/12/2010 21:06

now i wouldn't say no to the sailors especially if they were thrown in as a job lot, not sure i could have them as an extra.
