    Oh anyone know what I could get hubby for our anniversary? I hadn't planned on giving gifts but he's ordered something (I assume flowers)
    I'm so not fussed on anniversary gifting :o

    If you don't usually 'do' anniversary gifts then I wouldn't get him anything. Did you accidently find out he'd ordered you something? If yes I'd just forget that knowledge.:o
    Its quite normal for a man to buy his wife flowers for anniversary and nothing given in return is it not??


    Kieren wants a wee swing for the garden, need to scout about for a good offer.

    LOL just roused the dog from his afternoon nap in the garden to come in and clean up K's lunch from the floor. Lazy? Me? Never!

    btw I've never been 'that' fussed on the xplory but after watching the demo video all the stuff it does and the fact that 3's cost less than my cherry :eek: make me feel stupid for not having one :p

    he told me, he can't keep a secret to save his life!
    he asked me last night if I'd got his gift yet :o I said I didn't get you one last year and he said you gave me a baby :rotfl:

    I so NEED a doggy shaped hoover! *ignores the fact Edgar is freaked out by furry quadrupeds*

    It is cotton Sami - how about a picnic blanket and either a day out somewhere or a grown up picnic for when the kids are asleep?

    Tia - I've had fairy post from you and it didn't smell of smoke, just 'other peoples house'. I find most people's houses have a smell - whenever I come back from MIL's I feel like I'm still there cos the smell lingers.

    Managed to get out for a couple of hours but had to come back as the powers that be are around. *Rollseyes*

    Where does the time go? :think:

    What about an 80% off Police watch from the email??

    btw incase anyone thinks I'm a meany, I hate gifts when you feel you 'have' to give them! We don't do anniversary gifts or valentines gifts or anything other than birthday and christmas but I do randomly buy OH stuff! I bought him a trailer as a surprise a fortnight ago and he was made up!!
