Inspiration please!  He likes to choose his own books/clothes/films etc. He doesn't cook or do any sport.
He isn't into ' experiences' or memberships.  I bought him some ' Blast Pants' last year and he's never worn them.

Days out together.  Lots of small cards with "I OWE U ....... a theatre trip; music gig; afternoon tea; weekend/mid-week stay away ........ " so that you can go out and about weather allowing .  How about museums?  Art galleries? 

What does he like to do?

[jillydoll]

Does he drink?
A nice bottle of something?
Aftershave?
An introduction into the world of cookery? Now that's definitely one for my OH...😂

Classy 

My sister has to buy a silly bran tub present for £1 last week she found a Donald Trump toilet brush in the £1 shop 

Apparently the royal family give silly presents.

Squeaker I have the same problem, he likes to buy most things himself! So I'm looking for inspiration.

I love books. So during the year I buy what I will read and put into a cupboard - DH goes into that and wraps what I have bought, I never remember what's in the cupboard.  Maybe suggest that to your husbands after all we can't read every book that we fancy in 12 months.  Even in the bath I can't get through many .......... same in Charity shops, I will hand over and he puts books away.

It may be too late to get a professional photograph done in a frame but maybe next year?  Bk/wh 'posed'.  If you have wall space to hang one?

My husband told me today, what he wants for Xmas, so job done.

I told him a few weeks back what I wanted.  I ordered it, and am using it now.  Again, job done.

Only problem is he thinks his present to me only cost £60.  In his dreams

Love it Shadyglade 

Wish my hubby liked books, doesn't wear aftershave either

[CLKD]

So YG - what does he like? We get to an age where we don't need anything 

[littleminnie]

Kindle
iPad
Amazon Voucher
Subscription to Netflix
Headphones

Beware of headphones: apparently our young people are in danger of becoming deaf early !!

[littleminnie]

The over ear noise cancelling ones are brilliant.  Especially when flying.

[squeaker99]

Thanks for your ideas.
He is Kindle mad now so can get ebooks much cheaper than the ' real ' thing.
We live back of beyond so there isn't much locally to inspire.
I keep looking for stuff on Amazon and he'll come up behind me and say ' don't buy that for me!' (dumb bells, an ice cream maker).
He does like gadgets -  I got him a Satnav which he liked, a vintage look DAB radio and a mini Sonos speaker for the kitchen.

[littleminnie]

What about an echo dot if he has a Sonos speaker

[squeaker99]

Thanks. What is an Echo Dot? He has an Alexa...sorry I am rubbish with tech.
