Thread: I have a month to sort a present

A voucher for a posh spa with a daylong set of every experience she might enjoy, including a massage.

Meanwhile, you can go to the motor museum.

Wanna be very early, it's a long balloon ride from The Plains of Emu to Alice.

Even further to Alice from Rotorua.

Something gold? Perhaps a Caterpillar lawn mower or garden tractor. Or John Deere which are green and gold.

Have someone write you a card for her...

"My love, your company time and presence is of such value to me that I choose not to get you a gift as doing so would invariably require the expenditure of the precious commodity so highly valued as you took the broken thing back from whence it came,

With all my love and adoration, "


The reason you get someone else to write it? youd get a dud pen.

Or you could do what I do, totally ignore the occasion. After a few days when the door slamming/ fracas/mayhem/divorce threats etc have subsided threaten to do it next year as well. Then run like old ****ery.


In reality though, after 62 years neither of us bother anymore. e'r indoors can go & buy anything that takes her fancy.

Even "nice" meals out don't seem the same anymore with ripoff prices & crap service.

62 years! I tips me lid to you both!

Just ask her what she'd like, then buy it for her.
