Thankyou to the lovely posters on last post I have a lego Landrover for him - cost a small fortune but he will love!

So far, two pairs of flip flops. Total spend £1

We’re 6 months pregnant and just moved house so he’s just getting a few small Choc bits (I know he loves) a £10 coffee thermos (he needs) and a gift set of drinks he likes.

We’ve kept Christmas pretty lean this year.

Mine has asked for 50 guitar picks, he keeps losing his so wants a good supply.

mousemousse · 15/12/2019 07:11

Mine doesn't consider anything he needs D a gift, or anything that is too functional. So clothes, smellies, watches, wallets are all non-gifts to him. I kind of see his point, if someone bought me a pair of work shoes and some deodorant I'd be a bit peeved.

So he's got chocolate and a PS4 game. DD wants to buy him a shaking llama toy Xmas Grin

Under the tree - a guide book to Prague.

We have bought each other a minibreak there in February 😁🎁❤️

cherryblossomgin · 15/12/2019 07:24

Hard drive for the PS4
Headphones
PS4 gift card for new game or DLC
Hemp Balm for his back

Sounds like a gift list for a teenager but he is 30.

A wooden box for all his BBQ kit with his name stenciled on (a weird size to fit great big Turkish skewers, a million gadgets and tools etc), a Dadmin BBQ t shirt, Brooklyn 99 mug, light cotton sweater thing from TK Maxx and loads of socks (requested). And a tiny canvas that our toddler painted to put on his desk.

thismeansnothing · 15/12/2019 14:53

Beginning of last year I said I wanted to replace our bedside lamps. I have an u healthy obsessions with TKMaxx and Home sense (tk maxx gallery of horrors is The best fbook group ever) so he said buy each other a new lamp. The weirder and more garish the better. So he's got an absolute gem of a lamp from home sense. It's got crystals, velvet/velour lampshade and tassels. It's horrific ly stunning. And now I'm all excited to see what he's got for me.

wejammin · 15/12/2019 14:56

Massive tool box, slippers, posh coffee

fitflopqueen · 15/12/2019 15:01

Mine packed a stocking two weeks ago as not expected to be home for 8 weeks. Elemis wash stuff, moleskin journal, etc. May be back for flying visit at Xmas now, hope he brings his stocking too, although the digestives and all sorts won’t be as appealing if opened here

WutheringFrights · 15/12/2019 15:02

Star Wars socks and beer from the DC
CD of The Book of Mormon and 2 tickets to see the show in London in January
C3PO autobiography
New lee child’s book
Pj bottoms

DrMadelineMaxwell · 15/12/2019 15:11

He wants nothing.
So he only has very token things and I've told him not to get me anything big either.
Aftershave set. Tin of chocs. Christmas tree decoration in shape of beetle car. Cherry brandy.

Wonkydonkey44 · 15/12/2019 15:19

Apple air pods - hoping he might share 😂😂

ninnypoo · 15/12/2019 15:21

Football scout annual things (don't actually know what it is- it's the one thing he asked for so I ordered it without reading the description).
A sweatshirt
A vegan cookbook because he wants to do Veganuary
Fancy craft chocolate bars themed around his favourite biscuits
A hidden London tour of disused tube tunnels (he has a thing for abandoned buildings)

ThingDoer · 15/12/2019 15:36

Yoga mat and bolster and book of yin yoga.

Birthday soon too so I'm off to google the London tunnel thing, @ninnypoo , sounds amazing!

inwood · 15/12/2019 15:46

I have no idea. At all!!!

ninnypoo · 15/12/2019 16:24

@ThingDoer it's through London Transport Museum- they have loads of different tours!
