    I'm getting him some aftershave ~ I love Bvlgari Aqua so he shall be having that!

    I also want these for him (he will LOVE them lol) http://www.next.co.uk/shopping/men/underwear/13/2?extra=sch&n=men&pid=499-997&exclude=00K00%7c00KS00&returnurl=%2fshop%2fgattgender%2dmen%2dcat%2dunderwear%2d3%3fnxti%3d0%26nxtv%3d000%26isort%3dbst&bct=%26quot%3bShop%20By%20Product%26quot%3b%26nbsp%3b%26gt%3b%26nbsp%3bMen%26nbsp%3b%26gt%3b%26nbsp%3bUnderwear

    I saw some other ones on the Next site, for any retro lovers, they have 'Raleigh' boxers, with "Ride my Chopper" on them :rotfl::rotfl:

    I'm sure I'll find some bits and bobs over time to add to those.

    Nozzy 0 I have heard of that before, maybe I should try too. Sod it I think I am!! He loves the Top Gear peeps and Jenson Button so think I will give them a pop, oh and Harry Hill ha ha.

    Harry Hill is a fab idea! h2b is a huge fan, I found this site that has an address you can send things to to get him to sign them. I need to get my act together if I want it back by May!

    perhaps a little poem, or you could record a little message.

    By the looks of that website he's pretty quick at getting things back to you, but I'm going to try and sort out mine in the next week or so I think. I think I might get a photo of him and photoshop a big MOB type hat on him or something, then send that to him. Really hope he signs it, h2b would love it!

    On the morning of our wedding I gave my oh a watch to make sure he got there on time :wink: & some socks to make sure he didn't get cold feet. The watch wasn't mega expensive think it was £25 from TK Maxx but his other watch was a digital & this was a smarter watch went nicer with his suit.
    I was also really lucky & found a bargainous Tshirt in Matalan for £2 saying "if found return to wife" this was last year but you could prob get something similar elsewhere. I gave him that the morning after our wedding, he seemed quite proud wearing it that day:)
    Booo!!!
  • Ahh theres some great ideas here. I wanted to have a boudoir (sp) shoot done, but they are so expensive. So instead bought a black duvet cover and some fake rose petals, and my sis took some pics of me in some of my best underwear. Got the pics printed online and put into a nice album, cost £20 altogether! Very MSE!! And i know he'll love it :)
