Hi all
It's my 2nd wedding anniversary coming up and I'm after some gift ideas for my OH.
As far as I know the tradition is card??
Last year I bought gig tickets (paper) but we've just had a new baby so can get out together - not that I mind him going off somewhere without me but dont really want to repeat last years idea.
Am just stuck!
He's a typical man I suppose - especially into computer games but has a gift card for game from his birthday with a lot of money left on it. He's not really into slushy 'token' gifts.
I was thinking maybe gift vouchers for a store but its kinda impersonal I think.
I dont really have a budget in mind - all ideas welcome
thanks

Lelika 99% of your posts are recommending this company. I am not full convinced that you have just had a good experience with them, I do however think you are involved with them and are trying to get away with free advertising. Advertising your own company on this board is not allowed. Therefore I have had to report your post.Raising kids is like being held hostage by midget terrorists0

It is my 2nd wedding anniversary too next month, I think the modern 2nd anniversary is cotton. So I have found that Marks and Spencer do a made to measure shirt service on line for about £30 and you have it monogrammed and choose your style.0
