A chimnea is a good idea - I'm stealing that one. My cave man also loves to make FIRE!! (PICTURE CAST AWAY SCENE WITH TOM HANKS) Wink

got so far:

lounge pants
bodum travel mug
loads of riesen - chocolate
personalised chocolate block off DC
personalised hand and footprint keyring off DC
socks
wash bag
l'oreal face moisturiser
alpocin for his bear skin! - it's an anti balding shampoo
smellies
iphone - when i find one that's not stupid money - probably never

not very exciting but what he wants!

I just want Flowerbomb by Viktor and Rolf, and a quiet few hours to watch a film with a bottle of wine and some olives. That will never happen!

BoysBoysBoysAndMe · 22/11/2011 14:26

Ooh and I'm getting his wedding ring engraved!

DP wants us to buy each other a new bed. And here I was asking all of your ideas.

Hmmmph, I was going to ask for new boots

A toy car.

Sorry, a model car. And a box of Lindt chocolates.

He's been getting little 'parcels' delivered for weeks now, which I am banned from seeing so they're either for me or he's got a secret mistress who is getting a lot of stuff from China for Christmas. I am a bit worried. We set a £20 limit and the stuff just keeps on coming...

I'm getting my BF a nice watch. Don't have a lot of money at the moment as I'm a student so I'm trying to find the nicest looking one for my money.

I've got a December birthday, for which I THINK he's getting me some jewellery. No idea about Christmas.

MamaLazarou · 22/11/2011 14:48

I don't think we are getting each other anything this year. We are well skint!

NorthernGirlie · 22/11/2011 14:52

Nothing - we don't 'do' proper pressies - we go away together for a couple of nights between Xmas and New Year and that's our treat to each other :)

Insomnia11 · 22/11/2011 14:59

We've agreed (my suggestion) to limit it to spending £50 on each other this year. I've already bought him The World at War DVD boxset and will probably get one other thing. A jumper probably, v original!
