Boring people get boring gifts.
-Socks
-Underpants (maybe not for your brother, though!)
-Exciting shower gel from Rituals

My DH falls into this category. I just read the suggestions and asked what he'd like. An 'exciting' shower gel would be good apparently, but doesn't help with what to buy for a DB 😁.

Binoculars

Mine is bloody useless

I usually get him a new hoody/jumper from North Face or Weird Fish or Finisterre. He’s a very practical man not fashionable.

socks and pants

sometimes he asks for a DIY tool!

No particular budget. I’d sooner get nothing than buy something he won’t use (for DH). For DBro it has to be postable as he’s overseas.

Kids always get him (DH) a bottle of rum, fave chocs and fave savoury snack and have since they were babies. Hmm.

DH and I have had a deal the last couple of years, we get ourselves what we want and give it to the other to wrap and gift. It’s been great, I get what I want and so dose DH.

I haven’t bought DBs presents for years, last time I did I bought novelty gifts, plastic soldiers and a wooden catapult, things they loved as kids.
