    Seriously, for Christmas what on earth do you want?

    I have No idea what to get my wife. I ask her and she says practical things, like a duvet cover (a thing for covering blankets or something like that) – in fairness, that’s not a Christmas present.

    So, what would you like?????

    This poor lonesome 'Where To' with the best will in the world, just bought something useful for around the house. She says "I don't mind, something small".

    She says, off to Australia ya big spanner.

    Where are the similar questions over on the "Ladies who lunch" threads ?

    Are they racking their brains trying to think of something to buy the main man in their life ?

    Answer =No.
    Our present will a Top Gear DVD, the best of 2013. Or a sports book - any random one, whichever was closest to the till at the bookshop really.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,501 ✭✭✭Madam


    Vouchers and my favourite perfume(Pomegranate Noir by Jo Malone)/ Oh and a box of dark chocolate Thorntons chocs and I'd be happy enough.

    You have to have a least three presents to open on Christmas morning(isn't that the rule?).

    You'd be surprised, she could be like me in that sense. I'd regard myself as hard to buy for, because theres nothing that I particularly want that badly.

    Is she dead against vouchers? some people don't like the idea of them, but if you got her a voucher for one of the shops she'd normally buy duvets and the likes in, she can choose the style for herself.

    Take her to Paris to see the Eiffel Tower. And then push her off. Women love surprises.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,163 ✭✭✭yeppydeppy


    I'm agin' vouchers, it's like giving cash but not. Buy something, anything and keep the receipt.
    (btw Abi, does that mean you want babies or you have needs like a baby?)
    (I maybe able to help out with the first one.)

    I want an arduino gift box (with various resistors and connections), some moisturiser, a good blue tooth speaker, a mig welder, a set of diamond drill bits, and some perfume.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,732 ✭✭✭rain on


    A duvet cover is not "a thing for covering blankets", the clue is in the name.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 942 ✭✭✭Real Life

    Go me. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,787 ✭✭✭Jayob10


    The key is to buy something that is really a present for yourself but disguised as a gift for her. Concert tickets or something. Throw in a bottle of perfume as a sweetner to disguise the fact its not just all about you :D
