I need help…seriously. I am throwing my plight upon all males out there and asking for genuine honest suggestions? What do I buy as a gift for Goldfinch for a special event that is coming up soon?
I am totally stuck…my mind has drawn a blank. I am looking through websites and none of them are helping.
He is in his forties. He does not drink, or smoke, he likes art – but I have already bought him two art sets and given him my bakes and chocolates galore! It can’t be an enormous or heavy gift as he is going back to Australia in three months.
I am not great with gifts anyway…but, at the moment I feel quite hopeless. So tell me what would a man want as a gift??? Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated!!!

I’d suggest an “experience” thing! A tasting session, a driving experience, hot air balloon ride, a trip to the Islebof Wight, the National Soace Center, a football/sports stadium, game, play concert. A flying lesson, a channel tunnel day trip. Memories or photos are lightweight!!

Make him stuff. Create a playlist that he can carry with him wherever, maybe recording your explanation for song choice between each song. Perhaps you could even sing his favourite song on it. Make him a keyring or draw a picture he can keep in his wallet.

Ha ha, Without reading this until now, it’s funny that the Britchy one has said exactly what I said. An Experience thing. I love her suggestion of the Isle of Wight, but then it is one of my Happy places. 🙂

The thing I’d treasure later is one of those memory photo books you can have made at a local copycentre, small too, and low cost as well.

Way too late for this post, as usual 😦 but, should the question arise again ‘sometime’…
… you said for a special event? Hmmmm… not sure of the budget available…
… a day-trip to a place you think he’d enjoy that you could explore together (to make a special memory of that he can always ‘carry’?) Or, a Thames river cruise maybe? A book/music by his favourite author/singer?
What would a hedonist like? 🙂 🙂 Maybe i’m not the person to best answer that?
