I have bought or will buy DH "SW" for Xmas. What is it...?

Cos buggered if I can remember!

I have my Oh-so-organised Xmas list on the PC. Ever so rarely DH accesses it to maybe triumphantly tick off the one thing he's sourced. Fine. But it does mean I have to put his present or ideas in code. Hence 'SW'.

But I have no idea what it is so don't even know if I may have bought it already!

It'll be smallish, say up to £30, and will be a thing not an 'experience'.

Any ideas?

swimwear?

Northey · 22/11/2011 18:39

Is the the initials of someone you know, whom you'd planned to ask what DH might like?

purpleturtletoise · 22/11/2011 18:40

Any clues? Does he have hobbies? Favourite food? Anything we might be able to use for inspiration?

Snowy/sunny weather!

Northey · 22/11/2011 18:43

Something you can only buy in the south west (patchouli candles in the shape of Glastonbury Tor, maybe)?

jened34 · 22/11/2011 19:22

Shower wash?

Apologies in advance, but

Is it really none of the things suggested above?

What are his interests and hobbies, perhaps it can be guessed that way.

He likes real ale, country walking, bike rides (ambling through the countryside rather than racing)- um- nothing very sporty and takes little notice of his appearance!

Have watched this with interest. Grin that you still can't work out what it is !

Are they the initials of a company you wanted to get something from ? Rather than the initials of an item ?
