Hi, my parents are celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary (ruby!!) and i need ideas for presents! I want things that will mean something! My eldest is going to draw a portrait of then to get framed, my other daughter is going to get a vase, some red gems and some smooth pebbles and we are going to get everyone in the family to write a message on each stone and put everything in the vase, but now i am stuck for my son!!! Any ideas would be great, preferably home made

Man who run into airport turn-styles is going to Bangkok

You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time but you can never please all of the people all of the time0 -
If you did get a special plant could he paint a plant pot with the date they were married on? Or fill a jar with ruby coloured sweets and personalise the jar?0
