    I'm sure he'd love to receive a 'naughty knot'. Google it, a pressie no hot blooded man would refuse and only a tenner.

    Love it!!! :D


    Me and OH have agreed to not buy anything, but that we'll go away for a night (or two!) after Christmas for a wee break. Nothing fancy or expensive either.

    to be fair, turn up naked with beer and i doubt many men would complain.

    cost of a beer... free if you steal it out of your own fridge...:rotfl:

    though you may have to pay for the heating now!

    Oh blimey...i need more ideas. :eek:

    Bf is going slightly crazy buying me gifts left, right and center (example: he said he'd bought me some dvds-that's ok...then he said he'd bought me 30!!!!) :eek: and i'm worried now my gifts will seem like not much in comparison :o I'm torn between buying some bits and bobs, or splashing out on a gaming mouse for him.

  • I always feel like I'm way behind when I read that others are already well into their Christmas shopping, must start mine soon as well, it's just all our birthday's are around this time of year also.

    I'm not sure what I'm getting my OH yet, but for sure some PS3 games. He would like a Macro lens for our camera as well. I used to spend crazy money on presents and since meeting my OH many years ago now he's weaned me out of that so now only buy what is really wanted rather than 'filling tat' as he puts it.

    In that case, try the thermals in Field & Trek (Sports Direct might sell them too) as I fitted into those for my holiday in Iceland in January and I was a size 30/32 then. There are bike shops that do a good size range, but if they're designed for bikers, they'll probably cost more money. As its for wearing under bike gear, it won't matter so much. Think my thermals were £7.99 for each part.

    **eta-They are now £6 and do up to 4XL.**

    Thank for this, I just bought him the Campri thermals from Sports Direct in 4XL I hope they will fit him! He is always whinging about the cold when riding his bike, I've got a little list of things to get him so far its:

    Touch Screen Gloves - £1.50 (primark they work really well!)
    Top from Jacamo
    Chocolate Cups
    Socks
    Bike cleaning kit
    Mans lip balm
    Thermals - £19.98 (sports direct, top, trousers and socks)

    but we only have a £50 budget so not sure if I will manage to squeeze everything into it.
