A new tablet we are both getting new ones. Maybe a game for PS.

I'm really struggling for birthday ideas and it's a big birthday- at the moment - I might get a BBQ!

An egg bbq!

Nice designer clothing since he will never buy it himself!!

I got a lovely set of mini aftershaves! They are always a win.

The teddy bear blankets from dunelm, my partner swore he wasn’t a fluffy blanket person until I got it him and he sleeps with it constantly.

I also added a handmade gift in :)

@Needanewname42 we have the Aldi Egg and a fire pit with a grill, the fire pit was used much more this summer. Lovely for steaks,sausages and s'mores.

We are another couple that don’t spend any money on each other, but I love reading these threads! My own DH is getting coffee in bed on Christmas morning (bear with me Grin)

He brings me a cup of tea in bed every single morning which I love. I am disabled and the stairs are hard for me and I am not meant to carry hot drinks upstairs. But I am going to set my alarm early, get myself downstairs and make coffee and bring it back up in a leakproof travel mug, with his “own” special coffee mug, in a crossbody bag. I shall then decant the coffee into his mug and give it to him in bed Xmas Smile

I also get a kiss with my cup of tea, every morning. It’s been one of our in-jokes for literally decades, that his face is too cold for kissing if he’s come back in from the night shift. So while the coffee is brewing, I am going to stick my face out of the window until it is cold, so when I give him the coffee I shall also give him a kiss with my cold face. I can’t believe I am typing this on a public forum Blush

It’s the little things in life Smile

This is so lovely 😍

Well sadly it doesn’t look like the “good in theory” Xmas Smilefrozen ears and coffee gift, will be happening, well maybe not on Christmas Day but I will do it as soon as I am able to! (I did have the inspired idea of secretly hiding our travel kettle and mini fridge in a DC’s bedroom the night before, to make it easier in the morning, so when I’m at home to do it I will use that idea to avoid stairs. I’ll hold the cold milk bottle to my ears to freeze them Xmas Grin). It would be a LOT easier to have a coffee machine in the bedroom, but finances and space rule it out sadly. It’s a shame as it would be great for DH.

Anyway, I shall update when I have done it. Meanwhile I hope everyone’s DH/DP’s gifts have turned up (so hopefully no one’s used fucking Yodel basically Xmas Angry) and they love them and have a happy Christmas Day Xmas Smile
