What to get swmbo for Xmas
« on: November 29, 2014, 06:29:06 AM »
So it's that time of year again when us guys always struggle to hit the spot with that well thought, researched, valued gift for the better half.
Well seriously, what do you get for a lady when she clearly already has the perfect gift that is witty, charming, romantic, and thoughtful.

Ideas please?

I bought Kerry a new Hema 7 for her birthday last week, and considering a new camper for her christmas present.


She'll probably get me some clothes or something...

I think she is lucky to have a considerate husband like me to get her the best presents.... :angel: :angel:

Discovered today that a new camera for her might be the go.
Or so it was intimidated.

Hoping to get her a new ( to us ) adventure off-road camper.  Can't think of anything more romantic than being able to spend more time away together :-D

I'm pretty sure that it's what she wants more than anything  else.....

I bought Mrs McT a Waeco Fridge stand for Christmas last year  ;D

Then we just 'laughed'and 'laughed' ??     NOT !!!

Still haven't lived it down - I've been reminded of this continually all year.   So I'm also looking for good ideas from the guys who have learnt a thing or two...

Ya better than me, we buy each other nothing for Xmas or birthdays or Valentine's.

Having said that, i was thinking of getting Astrid a 3 hour surfing lesson, but with the balance of a boiled egg, it may be a waste of money.

If you are serious about "hitting the spot", how about something in the plastic/metal line, battery operated and an option with a vibrating factor.

That's right, a new smart phone with silent mode, and she can video you getting out of bog holes, get the latest apps and leave you free for so she can get some "me time".

2 x 6inch stacks for the ute with 1 not connected, and a 1.2inch exhaust going into one of them. go with 2x 10ft UHF antenna on the bullbar with spring bases so they smack the roof at 80 kph...

One year I got SWMBO an electric fence unit. Last year I made her some stuff for her horse gear. This year I was thinking a lift kit for her DMax but doubt that'll go down well!
SWMBO reminds me of a Prodigy song....
