40th birthday present

Mr. Presentable

Any suggestions welcome for 40th birthday present. It's a guy, works in IT (manufacturing) likes to cook, married with two small children. Budget up to 200.00. Very rural.

Terry

an ipod.

WhiteWashMan

a holiday

Vokes

He lives 'very rural'? Then buy him a weekend away for two somewhere by the coast e.g. Kerry, Cork etc...

Depending on what kind of a sense of humour he has ye's could do what we did for a bloke in my old job when he turned 40 and pay for the first instalment on a burial plot, wrap the reciept in wrapping paper and give him that. Well we thought it was funny.

Get him some meccano. It'll probably trigger his mid-life crisis and he can get it out of the way asap.

Thats a quality present... although if it were me i'd be happier with the money

4_0 is a big number..give him something that makes him feel alive, a helicopter or aeroplane lesson should be just the business.

If he's 40 going on 50 then cooking vacations are an idea..

How about a female spanish radio station manager who has turned 40 and is recently pregnant?

It's actually too late and I totally messed up... I just want to do a better job the next time I'm in a similiar situation.
