Cooks Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Well I must be psychic because I went out on wednesday and bought both my sons their very own alarm clock for xmas to encourage them to be a little more independent on getting up in the morning. although I dont mind waking them, I hate their moans at me This morning YS came to me and said, you know mum I would really like my own alarm clock to get myself up in the morning! I wish I knew what the lotto numbers were going to be though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 That's good then! If only I was psychic, it would make it much easier for me to work out what my Dad wanted for Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Get him some crocs! I've got mine some Axle crocs - khaki brown camo & a jumper. He may be 60, but he's young at heart. My father in law - we have got him a virgin book of hit singles & will get some Port & Stilton for him next week. Brother in law - shooting gloves, designer beanie hat, welly socks & a army jumper. Hubby - cargo pants from River Island & a jacket. That's all the men in my life & it is so hard. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Hopeless at Egluntine Towers too. Him Indoors and YS don't know what they want. OS wants an acoustic guitar, and DD has given me a list as long as your arm. It's a 'boy' thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow that wouldn't go down well...plus he's recently bought a new pair of shoes. He's not 60-yet anyway, he's 57 and his birthday was earlier this month so it makes it even harder to get presents for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 My ES saw an advert for Hellboy dvd and said he wouldn't mind watching it. I'm stuck for ideas for him so said 'oh would you like it as one of your presents'? No apparently he doesn't want to waste a Christmas present on it. But he has given me no ideas for anything else I have got so much shopping to fit in this week before YS finishes school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 How's about cinema vouchers / DVD rental vouchers for him? Vouchers for nice restaurants & pubs go down well. Crates of beer (depending on age). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
