You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
I am genuinely stumped at what to get for Christmas from my wife. I have all the clothing I need, all the bike stuff I need (bar some forks but my folks and the inlaws are pitching in for them). We've just got married and got a load of camping gear and everything else we need as gifts then.
Anyone been given something they now find indispensable that they wouldn't have bought for themselves?
(For context I'm in my mid 20's)
We generally don't buy each other Christmas presents.
However, This year we are buying ourselves a new amp and speakers
Scalextric. 😀
(For context I'm in my mid 40's)
I started the same thread for my birthday recently. check out my history.
Apple TV
I want a Nexus 7, wife still isn't interested in buying it for me...:-(
See, I'd love a Scalextric and/or a remote control car but she has refused 🙄
Jambo- I've bought her something, so I'm bloody well getting something too. That IS the point of Christmas.
Hookers and blow.
(Someone had to)
What Harry said!
You haven't figured out marriage yet then...
mine's buying me an axe!
Tickets to see a live act, a weekend away for the pair of you, a skills course.
Still need ideas?
granfors small forest axe. could be right up your street, given the camping stuff...
Hope you aren't going to use on her.
Do what Jambo said. Get something spiffy for the pair of you. Holiday perhaps?
Mine got me a skills course one year. It was brilliant.
What about some piece of camping gear that you haven't thought of using before, but that could be a real luxury when out in the beyond?
Got Mrs Stavro to get me a new Deuter backpack, I'm such a happy bunny.
Mines geting me a new socket storage tray
And if you think that practical - my parents are gettin us the materials for rewiring the house. ( dads in the trades)
We've just got married
So let me get this right,your brand new fantastic wife does not know what you want?.
She has no idea how to surprise you with something that hadn't even appeared on your radar ?
I don't think so .
If she knows what you like ,she will figure it out.
🙂
A bisexual female friend
Experience/food/drink or some skills are good starts
Camera? GoPro? what about a subscription to Singletrack?

Crotchless knickers and a peephole bra
HTH
A pair of tickets and a B&B in a place you have never been.
Sidi dragons size 43 red, that's what any self respecting wife will be getting their loving husband this year - I've dropped enough hints anyway. Failing that probably a crap jumper and some socks.
They're only just married; she probably won't know his size yetdjglover - Member

I've just ordered the Laura Mercier Deluxe Travel Brush set.
My understanding is that these are basically Park Tools for girls.
A NAS? A new G-shock watch? A curious hot friend would definitely be the best present though...
hang gliding trip
Plane tickets for you and a mate to Whistler next summer.
A proper noshing.
A TNF Nuptse vest from Cotswold for £99. A baking or cooking course. A session with Jedi (there are other MTB schools available). A first aid or survival course. A magazine subscription. Nice bottle of gin or malt. The new forks you are getting get them tuned specifically for you. Some new hiking boots. A green wood furniture making (or insert any man type stuff) course....
We have this problem, we have pretty much everything we need / want. Mrs always wants more clothes / jewellery, but apparantly I'm 'impossible to buy for', 'cos if I want something, I'll generally go and buy it. Apparantly this is a failing on my part 😯
Anyway, this christmas, Mrs Feet is giving me a Unicycle!
Kindle?
Think I'm getting a Nexus 7 this year. As a previous hardline opposer of all things tablet, I'm quite excited.
kindle-- isn't that like a never ending e-mail ?
I had the same problem. I'm asked for a head torch. Came to me at 9:20pm last night in a freezing shed with drool down the side of my chops from holding the torch in my mouth.
