    Ok peeps, I've decided to do 12 "hubby vouchers" one for every month we've been married.....seeing as that's quite a few I need more ideas for what they can be for (I can be imaginative with a few....) but any more suggestions would be great! Big or small, I need a nice mix!

    So far the definites are:

    Night in B&B anywhere
    Cinema tickets for film of his choice
    Breakfast in bed
    Meal cooked by me
    Drink in pub we've never been to

    Thanks in advance ;)

    another idea which i have used for OH is to buy him a "rest of our life book".

    basically its a really nice photo album, with a few photos and bits and bobs from our time together so far (tickets from things we've been to etc), with the rest of the pages left blank to be filled in as we meander our way through "the rest of our life" together

    Thats a really nice idea, its the sort of thing you could do anyway for later anniversaries, you know the biggies, 10, 20, 30, 40 or 50!!!!

    Ive got my 3rd next week which is leather - i joked about a leather posing pouch for a laugh - apart from belt, wallet, jacket, gloves - I cant think of anything else, paper you can make things, but leather?

    any suggestions????

    You might find a nice leather photo frame to put a picture of you in - for his delight. A friend of mine had a pair of shoes made for her husband...
