    Hi all!

    Me & my boyfriend have our 8th yr anniversary at the end of july - we're both in our mid-20's & I really need to come up with a romantic present for him.

    He is always getting me great presents - trips away, expensive jewellery & romantic gifts like portraits of us, collages, jigsaw puzzle of us! Me - I am the worst person in the world for coming up with romantic ideas, I have been racking my brain for the last month trying to come up with something great & nothin........ I really want something that is going to woah him & impress him as all my presents so far have tended to be ok but nothing great!

    Any help at all would be greatly appreciated - if anyone has any romantic present ideas - please let me know!!

    Buy him a nine iron golf club, then superglue an onion to one end, stick the other end of the carrot up yer bum, lie down on the ground, bum side up & let him tee the onion off the top of the carrot.

    It's not very romantic, but if you want to surprise him, you can't go wrong there.

    I feel sick with myself that all my instinctive responses appeared in posts 3 to 5.
    Maybe get him a Stratocaster and an amp and don't listen to us.

    a noose

    Prize-bonds.

    Thoughtful, long-term present and if ye break up you can sleep tight knowing that he'll never actually win anything from prize-bonds.

    Some sort of delicious biscuit.

    8th Wedding Anniversary

    Congratulations on your 8th anniversary! You may think this is not a special anniversary because it is not your 5th or 10th anniversaries, however view it in this light...
    The number eight is considered particularly auspicious in Chinese culture because it sounds similar to the word for 'prosper' or 'wealth'. It is pronounced like "bah" in Mandarin (pinyin: bā).
    We also like the visual aspect of the 8th anniversary because it is similar to the infinity symbol which is a happy thing to associate with the connection you have with your husband or wife.
    So from all of us here at xxx.com, may your marriage be bountiful with infinite blessings and joy!
    The traditional material of bronze is such a beautiful color and texture to have displayed in the home so take this opportunity on your eighth anniversary to find a decorative item you both like.
    And if bronze does not appeal to you, the other traditional material of pottery is another great decorating item because you can choose whatever style and color best fits your home. If your wife or husband has a creative streak, consider finding a local pottery school and buying them lessons.
    If you are looking for something specifically for your husband, and the materials or bronze or pottery do not match his personality, you can take the other modern material appliance and give him a "boy's gadget" type of gift or something for around the home or for one of his hobbies.

    the property market has crashed so buy him some land, a 6' by 3' plot comes to mind


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,090 ✭✭✭BengaLover


    one of them 'speshul' days out, rally car driving or something. Failing that if you want something super romantic then make him a book of gift vouchers on the pc and printer..make up ideas for what each voucher can be redeemed for ..a night of rumpy pumpy, a massage, etc etc.. (I know ill regret posting this)

    You pay this man five dollars to write "Happy Anniversary [Name]" on his stomach and dance for 30 seconds.

    No you do not get to choose the music.
