Hi! I have no idea what to get my parent in laws! Any ideas welcome! He likes golf and beer and football and she doesn't have many hobbies but is quite girly

Do you not do joint presents? I choose for my mum and my partner chooses for his parents (obviously we talk and both have input) and then the presents are from both of us.

The gift will be from me and my partner but he leaves it to me to pick the presents

I'd tell my partner to pick (or come up with some ideas to talk to you about)! He surely know his parents better than you do! Do you do all the present choosing? That seems a very unfair expectation of you.

Tell your partner to deal with this. They are his parents and you're not his bloody PA, ffs.

Get your partner to decide what to get them, or to ask them if there's anything they want. DH always decides gifts for his side of the family, I only get involved to help narrow down options - so he'll come to me and say Mum wants a new vase/jumper/wooly hat, shall I buy A, B or C (sometimes his taste is a bit off!)
