  • I did nothing, just felt like treating her :)


    Not for xmas, just a nice surprise for her :)


    She's got one :p

    Thanks everyone for ideas.

    Ended up getting her a beautiful gold and white gold necklace, with an inset of diamonds.
    She's well happy.

    Could I ask where you found such a bargain??!

    If I were the recipient, then the best present I could ask for, is for someone to do the housework for me. It's such a chore and really gets me down. Even if it was just a one off.
    Hope my husband reads this!

    ...an iron and possibly a new ironing board/cover would be an ideal surprise.
