Birthdays at Christmas!

Its my OHs 21st a few days before Christmas, and I want to get him something really memorable.

For my 21st, he took me up on a champagne Hot Air Balloon Flight.

I really want to top his present to me, but has already said dont get him an experience thing coz he wont go - he's really shy, and thinks he wont enjoy it, although I know he would!

Does anyone have any Ideas? He is into modifying cars, but if I get him something for his car, he will sell it eventually, and not remember it!


thanks

  • Hi Lilfairy,
    Not sure how much you're wanting to spend/save. But I'ved just booked a session at our local snowdome for my OH's birthday.
    The one we booked through was https://www.xscape.co.uk
    You can spend as little as £27 per person for a 1 hour lesson. Clothes hire is only £5 per person!! This will be a really fun thing to do together & festive too!

    You could book a trip away, maybe a cheap city break (I'm not sure if this is out of your budget but there are great deals to be had - check out https://www.lastminute.com)
    I took my OH away to Prague for his 30th last year.

    Good luck
