Chrissie pressies
Submitted by Adam Gallash on Wed, 2012-12-05 08:34
Well, seems to be that time of the year again, dunno about you but I much prefer to online shop rather than deal with the masses, queues and irate people in shopping centres. I'm a bit of a see something and buy it person, but been looking online lately and nothing much is appealing to me. Thought I'd put it out there and see what some of you guys are getting your missus's for Chrissie this year, apart from the obvious books/jewellery/lingerie or whatever, anyone found anything cool out there that will keep the other half impressed with your 'thoughtfulness' ;)

RST
An RST course if she doesnt have it already. Its the gift that keeps on giving.
I did then the best that I knew how. When I knew better, I did better.

Trailer reversing course - brilliant
That is even better than getting the RST.
In fact, it should be an extra unit offered as part of the RST.

Trailer Reversing
+1 Bradz, should be part of getting your RST, or even car licence. We have all seen the bloke in the brand new Prado, with the shiny new Sea Ray on the back take 27 goes at getting it down the ramp!
Mrs Browndog got a new car for her birthday in September, so I'll probably go something a bit cheaper for Chrissie. If I got her a kitchen appliance I reckon I might come home to find the boat sold, golf clubs used as garden stakes and my car on fire!
I'm thinking a book she wants and a hammock for her to sit in while she reads it.

Maybe all she wants is some peace and quite Adam. Mine loves me taking the boys out fishing at Seabird so she can read and relax all day. Sometimes it just the simple things that don't cost a dime. My boys usually make her a voucher book with stuff like foot massage, wash dishes etc.
Love the West!

She will have 4 days quiet time before Christmas when I'm in Exxy (back Chrissie eve). ;) Think I had better make up with it with some thing good, just trying to figure out what that is!

I found a bloke who uses a 3D CNC machine to carve a picture into a standard photo size piece of wood then epoxy it etc.
I sent him a photo of each of the two kids, figured she would like that. It hasn't arrived yet but I reckon it will be pretty cool. He's on another fishing forum I frequent and after seeing one pic I took the plunge. Really looking forward to seeing the end results. If he lets me I'll post them up.
If she doesn't like them I'll duck out to the shops with Scotto's idea and sort her out.

New IPAD
Yeh she had a old one but it was full and didnt have the memory of the new ones.I was like you absolutley buggerd for ideas after I filled up her gold pandora bracelet(it was a brilliant stroke that lasted 5 years).Ive got it worse as her birthday is two weeks before xmas and she doesnt like a big present that covers both.Bought her a new car last year with that idea (mini) but it was seen as a birthday present
There are two types of people ,do'ers and watchers
Right now the do'ers are the doing it

I don't know how you fellas
I don't know how you fellas ever get leave passes to go fishing with suggestions like that.
Jump on Etsy.com and type in what ever she is interested in. Its full of hand crafted stuff, gifts, jewellery, funky stuff for the house etc.
The other suggestion would be to create a bit small zone outside for her somewhere with one of those cane hanging chairs, some nice cushions, a fav book of hers and a bottle of Champagne etc
Good luck, its tough
