Christmas

What have you bought DH/DP as a main present?

I'm having a mild panic about DH, I've bought a couple of books, an LP, a back magic exerciser thing and will be getting a few small gifts - shave foam, chocs etc. I've also got two joint presents for him and DS (lovely Maps book that was recommended on here, and a rocket launcher toy).

But that's it, and I have no clue what to get as a main gift. He's just had his birthday which doesn't help, and he really doesn't need anything. I don't want to get anything too novelty that won't actually be useful, eg he loves star wars and I assumed it would be easy to get something this year but haven't found anything that grabs me.

He also likes film generally (already has Empire subscription that I renew annually), running, DIY. I'd thought about getting some lovely photos of the kids done but have now left it stupidly late so think that's out.

So, anyone had any brainwaves for their DPs that might inspire me?

myotherusername thanks for the suggestion, but yes, he does have an iPod classic. And a Spottify account.

I may buy him a massage voucher for his birthday. He gave me a coffee subscription last year, or I would have done that.

We don't go mad at Christmas as we have everything we need at our age but I saw a lovely brown waxed jacket and a leather 'indie ' hat. He's been wearing them since the end of November.

He got me 3 pairs of beautiful shoes.

Then, in less than a month, two weeks in Spain!

( actually since he drew my attention to a black line running down the front of the tv screen that matches the white one at the side, I think we are going to have to shop for a new tv!)
