I reckon my mum would love a metal fire bowl that burns gel so she can use it inside. I may be going barmy but i can't find one anywhere

Please help! Thank you

On the off chance you are in London, they sell them on Greenwivch market every weekend but not much help otherwise - sorry!

thanks bubandbump, do they have metal ones there? I might just have to make a trip down to the big smoke!

jareth thank you for the link. i had found that one already but thought it looked a bit dark and heavy looking, i do appreciate you trying though!

Do you like any of these?

or these?

Not many metal ones though

I bought one of the ceramic bowls for my mum a few years ago and she uses it all the time in the summer on her patio

Cool glad you found one you liked - is it the crescent one? I thought that looked stylish. Ive bought a fire basket from that company previously and they were reliable with good service etc

HippyHippopotamus · 03/12/2011 19:47

They are all completely and a con. You can change your name by deed poll more cheaply and it will have as much meaning.

I like the burners.

Jcee · 04/12/2011 18:57

I'm always up for a challenge...we have some men like that in our family and these are things we've bought over the years which have gone down well...

Does he like wine?

cheese?

Magazine subscription?

Spirit of choice with Matching glass or decanter?

Or there's always the ideal gift for people who have everything...amazon vouchers! Xmas Grin

Jcee · 04/12/2011 19:02

Just thought of something else topiary -we got this for a friend and gave him the challenge for it to be perfect!

HippyHippopotamus · 04/12/2011 19:19

jcee woah, i'm spoilt for choice now and can't decide between the topiary or the vine! You're a star! Thank you so much!!

Ps what do my husband, sister and brother want? Xmas Grin
