I imagine if you're in the vicinity when she opens it, you will get the cold shoulder.

My dad once bought my mum some axle stands for her birthday. This was obviously a joke but I had to ask HER if I wanted to borrow them!

I once bought my wife an ironing board cover for one of her Christmas presents, she was really happy as well!

I got lots of grief at work about it but she really did ask for just what I bought?

Mine wanted a dishwasher, so I got her a drainage stand. It was kind of what she wanted, just £400 cheaper. She was happy, but I do get the pish taken from mates a bit.

I got mrs Carbon a new hoover last year.

This year she is getting a Kenwood mixer but she likes that kind of thing.

Il get her the usual gubbins too as she has had a tough time recently.

Mrs Seadog says not to get her anything as we have just had nice new shiny kitchen fitted.

Not sure if it's because she considers it a pressie, or because we are now skint.

I hope it's because of being skint, as I don't want to spend that much again next year on a pressie.

My mate bought his gf a toaster for her birthday. Even worse, it was to replace one that he'd broken, which already belonged to her! She still married him though...

A friend of my ex got a load of running gear for Christmas off her other half some years back when she was 7 months pregnant. She'd not really been a runner before but he thought it was a good idea to help her lose weight after she'd had the baby!

Looks like the OP will using the palm of his hand for the foreseeable future.

First dibs on the OP bikes if his wife does actually kill him. 😉

Valid grounds for divorce according my other half - buying her white goods for Xmas. Would be cheaper since she's getting an expensive mix of cycling stuff and jewelry.

I got my wife Delia Smith's 'How to Cook' on our first proper date and got away with it.

You'll be fine, she'll love it.

You bought someone a present for your first proper date? Were you that desperate?

Which is normally accompanied on Christmas Day by "I know I said not to buy me anything but I got you a little something because you are so special....."
