He is just impossible to buy for! He usually buys what he wants himself so never wants for much come Christmas. I've asked him and he says 'anything will do' helpful!😅 I feel he's a typical man and I buy him the same thing every year!

  • he loves Lego but my sister has said she's got him Lego
  • loves cars and driving and recently got a new bmw so maybe something for that to 'upgrade it' as he's said about doing this but I don't have a clue about cars. (I've got him an experience day driving sports cars before so don't want to do that again)
  • anything fidgety is his guilty pleasure. Eg , fidget cubes or something that's nice to click
  • obsessed with trainers but has a huge collection I feel it's unnecessary for even more.
  • enjoys cooking meat like steak and getting the perfect 'sear' and experimenting with cooking meat
  • enjoys a nice beer or vodka every now and then
  • has an Xbox he plays on
  • eats a lot of chocolate and Ben&jerrys ice cream!
  • loves a comfy cushion for bed
  • watches science experiments on YouTube a lot but never actually tried any himself
-enjoys gaining knowledge and reading into facts about all sorts
  • has a huge tool collection because he just loves them Apparantly!
  • we're moving house next year and the garage is going to be his man cave/ work shop for doing some projects on motorbikes..anything I could get for that?

I'll Be 31 weeks pregnant at Christmas with our first baby and he's very excited! I'm thinking to get something that may help his transition into a dad too? Or something from bump to him?

Any ideas appreciated, thanks in advanceGrin

If he "enjoys gaining knowledge and reading into facts about all sorts", what about a subscription (or a one-off) to Masterclass?

Massive range of subjects:

https://www.masterclass.com/categories

e.g. https://www.masterclass.com/classes/aaron-franklin-teaches-texas-style-bbq would appeal to his love of searing meat!

Or

Formula 1's Lewis Hamilton on a winning mindset might tick the driving box?

Congrats on your forthcoming baby, btw🙂

Chuug mug for his beer. I bought some as gifts and they are gorgeous and really well made.

Drift car smell stuff, they are quite posh and in a wooden holder which looks good.

Bought DH a meater a few years ago after recommendations here and it’s been a big hit. It hasn’t let us down yet, every steak or joint has been perfect.
