DH and I agree to spend £5 on each other. We have joint bank accounts so it seems crazy to spend a lot. This year though DH has worked loads of overtime and we have agreed to buy a Nintendo Wii for the family.

I'm getting him a biography of Keir Hardie, a book called How To Make A Tornado, and Christopher Lee's autobiography.

I am also going to do him a stocking stuffed with lots of little bits and pieces.

I am getting him EITHER a magic want all in one remote control or a power charging mat.

we're just doing books this year. so far i have 2 to give, and i know one more to get.

books on walking - have been rather short on ideas and money this year, but I know he'll like them

I have bought my DH a notebook computer, a case for it,a radio mouse and odds and sodds. I just hope he opens it because he still hasn't opened last years Wii. We dont even know if it works.

"Vouchers" for weekends off household duties and childcare to go mountain biking.

We have no spare money this year.

I am not anticipating unwrapping very much myself on Christmas morning. Making the most of DS only being 15 months old and not really knowing what is going on.

A tie
Wii game
a nice sweater
A book

a paul smith scarf from me and a chocolate orange from the dcs
