What presents have you bought for your DP?

[Inthetropics]

Just that really.

I've bought:

• Fancy coffee
• Very nice sugar free chocolate (she is diabetic)
• A necklace (she's told me exactly which one to get!)
• Pyjamas
• Crocs (also her choice)
• Huuuuuge jigsaw puzzle

Posh booze glasses
Booze
Loads of German beer
Giant ice cube silicone balls
Hotel Chocolate
Chocolate Orange
Different packets of M&M's from The Sweet Factory that you can't get in regular shops
Posh body spay (he doesn't wear aftershave)

He's a nightmare to buy for.

DH is getting:
Tripod
Choc orange lindt balls
Toffiffee
James May cookbook
A rotary grater (joke present)

I'm not sure what else to get him. Maybe Baileys.

@sameday2021 I got him this leather watch strap as the original rubber one it came with originally keeps getting unlatching. He prefers leather straps. www.amazon.co.uk/OUHENG-Upgraded-Compatible-Sweatproof-Genuine/dp/B088FDJQBQ/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?dchild=1&psc=1&keywords=apple%2Bwatch%2Bstraps%2Bouheng&th=1&tag=mumsnetforu03-21&qid=1607543419&sr=8-4

A rowing machine which is the only thing he's ever actually asked for and his request coincided with a surprisingly generous bonus from work.

Needed something for under the tree so I've got him some waterproof trousers for fishing and/or golf.

Off the back of another thread it turns out he's never had a stocking (we don't have children and don't do them for each other) so I'm doing him a stocking this year. So far I've got some secateurs, a bag of nuts, chocolate coins and a couple of fishing gadgets. I might get some veg seeds for the allotment. Am isolating now so can't get anything else at the moment and I've given Amazon enough of my money this year! Ooh might see if I can get him a dibber!

Then just as I was patting myself on the back for doing well he announced he wanted a CD separate for his decks set up.

So a CD separate.
