Hub and I are very egalitarian and, this year, have agreed to spend 'an amount' (I'm getting 'a watch') (he's getting something to do with photography) on each other with £20 spent on a gift to open on Christmas morning; a surprise.

Well, I confess, I am stumped! What to get my man for £20?
An item of clothng, magazine subscription, book... please can you come up with some cracking ideas, you lovely, inspirational lot, you!
He's into science, photography, literature (hell, how me ever married me I don't know!) so....

can you help please? Surprise/gadget around £20... ever thankful xx

Have you looked at the ThinkGeek website?

I usually end up getting my hubby a t-shirt, or two. Pads it out a bit

How about a telescopic tripod for his camera? Plenty around within the budget you have agreed on the web.

He has 3 already, Karen ; (

How about a really nice bottle of wine? ( that you get to share heehee! )
Body Shop have some nice mens toiletries ...
Nice scarf or gloves? Silly jokey christmas jumper with reindeer/ robin/ santa etc?Diary or notebook or a nice pen? Would he wear a hat?
Sorry nothing very out of the ordinary there..why are men so hard to buy for! X
hmmmmm..will keep thinking and get back to you if i come up with anything..

Hat? Brilliant!!!!

How about a memory card for his camera.
Or: a annual membership for jodrell bank but be warned this is £21 I'm sure your hubby is worth it.

I hate present buying for the menfolk, always so hard to find something different that will appeal. My husband and two grown up sons now send me a 'wish list' from Amazon etc with ideas so I can choose something I know they would like and it's still sort of a surprise as they don't know what I've gone for!
Sorry, not much use to you though Penny! ..To quote you, 'I'll get me coat!' x

Blimy, I think you lot know more about him than I do!!!
Some great ideas, thanks! xx

A subscription to 'Private Eye' it will last all year and make him laugh, and think, every two weeks which is certainly more than I am able to do, just a thought!

Ballerina x

P.S.... Or a DVD of whoever makes him laugh
