Urgent....... Christmas Present Ideas Needed

[I like Skol]

My daughter advised me: 'Think of things she likes and get good replacements if they're worn out, or, if they're not, better versions than the ones she has."

I haven't actually managed to put it into practise myself, but it seemed like a good place to start from.

That dishcloth has seen better days, I'm sure she would love a new one......

We are both late 60s so there is little we need.

His 'n' hers ebikes, or if you can't stretch that far, matching walking sticks.

Buy her some CDs of music that she likes. It's completely pain-free on play.com or Amazon.

Friend off ours for his 40th Wedding Anniversary had a CD produce and packaged that was all the music that had been "important" in their relationship over the years from the first "song" they danced to to tracks they enjoyed on holidays etc

Went down very well

I've bought the wife a new fridge-freezer for xmas.
I can't wait to see her face light up when she opens it!

One year for my parents I had a pack of cards made, each card had a picture taken from one of their albums so 52 in all. It took some time but it bought a tear to the eye of both of them. My mum loves them when she plays patience. The link is here

One year long ago I gave my wife my last Rolo, she still has it.

How about a calendar with photos that you have taken on it?

Apparently our shy and retiring Verger doesn't like giving presents publicly. Miss Goodbody says that at the Vicar's mince pie and sherry gathering last Yuletide, he slipped her one in the pantry.

Something nice and fruity no doubt!

Give your good lady a well earned break, take yourself out for the day and leave her to enjoy the peace and quiet.

Now that idea I DO like

Don't be a cheapskate, book a luxury winter holiday

Honestly.........I have tried that. She hates flying. I got her to agree Menorca next June but she flat out refuses to fly in winter. I am looking for a Twixmas break in the lakes so that may work.
