What are you getting your DP for xmas?!

[Longo]

My DP is so fussy but refuses to say what he wants for xmas! Help desperately needed!!

Nothing.

But if I had any money I'd get him some cycling stuff and coffee for his filtery thing in the kitchen.

I've spent a few hours lookign through socks and underwear on that next website that was linked (the godawful bottoms! )
anyway, I've chosen a pair of Where's Wally pants and some Sunday-Saturday socks. Got to decide if i can afford that....

so far I've got dh:-

a coffee machine
foo fighters cd
inbetweeners box set
manicure set (he's always moaning he can't find nail scissors)
slippers
sweets

I've also brought 2 starwars box sets which will probably transfer to family members.

I was also wondering about maybe a Scalextric as we've just brough ds one for his birthday and ds has been very excited about it. Or maybe this from his childhood days

wow! that truck is a monster.

ooooh Big Track - perfect!

My DH is having:
Lost dvd box set from me.
A stocking from the DC's containing:
A book
Chocolate
Socks & boxers (predictable emoticon)
Shower stuff (ditto)
Chilli oil
New batteries for their toys!!

Sazisi - I like your gift ideas. I love The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists. My dad gave it to me to read, I could barely breathe in parts. And I have alsways wanted to see as ballet. How lovely your ideas sound. I'm not buying the love tokens though!

DH is getting slippers and probably a ski helmet. Slightly bizarre combo, but hey ho, he needs them. It was his birthday a coupel of weeks ago, so am out of inspiration.

So far:

Band of Brothers box set

To buy:
Camera stuff (MN has been a godsend this afternoon)
A remote controlled mini helicopter if I can find a reasonably priced one

I will get some chocolates when in the UK but need to wheedle out of him which ones he wants!

Wow, loads of ideas for me to steal, especially love the telescope idea! I've decided to get that and some star wars lego, yes he is a geek!!

nothing (again!)

our Xmas will come one day but as long weve got each other, thats all mattered

I think I'm getting this scarf and this to put cufflinks in when he gets them out in the evening ready for the next day, currently they sit on the table outside bedroom, thought why not make a feature of it .

Something else maybe, dunno, hard to buy for and has bought himself Morse dvds and new trainers recently, annoyingly as I could have.

Suggs from Madness autograph (which my SIL got in Oz) He signed a paper drinking cup so I've mounted it in a box frame, it looks good

Have framed 2 photos of our DS playing football for the team my DH coaches

Bottle of Courvoisier Brandy

New Moon Rising Man City DVD/Man City Book

They've got bigtrax in the debenhams sale at the moment.

I've just ordered H an ipod dock alarm clock thing. We're only doing useful this year!

A punchbag hung up in the garage, probably gloves to go with it. Then a stocking with aftershave, sweets, scarf and stuff

I was going to buy my DH a telescope as an anniversary gift this summer, but found a MUCH better pair of binoculars for about the same money. You WILL need a tripod for them, but my DH LOVES them!! He has just been moaning loads about the lack of clear skies for stargazing since he got them!!

I'll go and find the website and post a link in a minute.

belt and wallet set and some aftershave. nice and safe. boring, but safe

fabulousfrancesca... great idea! where did you find the alarm clock please

great stargazing binoculars

My husband got the free 8x21 pair as well. They are also VERY good.

If you're set on buying DH a telescope, this is a very good one, at a really good price.

A pair of shoes. . . .not sure he will like them. . .

meowy...those links both go to the binoculars...

He will be getting:

A new monitor for his compuer
New pair of jeans
Some trackie bottoms
And probally some smaller bits i havent thought of yet!

Test:

telescope, I hope

That's better.

Aftershave
Smellies
Hair wax
Shaving kit
Cufflinks
Scarf
Wallet
Belt
Diesel jumper
Shirt
Calvin klein boxers
Next socks
Terry's chocolate orange

I might get him a nice man bag for work as well.
