Bought bike stuff in Febuary which went down like a Led Zeplin.

Dinner/day out will be seen as a cop out and wont count as a present.

Her Gym is a health spa so pampering is out.

She doesn’t really do shiny stuff and I’d be hopeles at picking it anyway.

Flowers/choclate/wine are expected when I get home form work on a Friday so won’t be special.

And to make matters worse, it’s her birthday next month and Christmas the month after so I need at least 3 good present ideas!

It’s September

Her birthday’s next month, in October.

Christmas is the following month, in November.

Yep, that works

It’s October by next weekend

Flowers/choclate/wine are expected

suprise her and don’t.

Theatre, ballet, music? Saw Hamlet last week, Northern Ballet.
Ms TPT’s birthday we saw Swan Lake.
Good luck, we have all been there.
Was it shiny bike stuff?

Make something?

Card, picture, frame a photo of the pair of you?

Spend some time together?

What is she giving YOU for the anniversary?

Epic 😀

What is she giving YOU for the anniversary?

No idea, but I hope it’s illegal in at least 30 states

*apologies in advance, but this is stw, so it’s sort of traditional

Pearl Necklace?

No idea, but I hope it’s illegal in at least 30 states

Aha, that answers that. I was about to ask why you kept the fussy beeatch around. (-:

Surely the fall out from your February purchases has died down by now?!

That’s a toughy that one, one argument would be that although her gym is a health spa, how often does she actually have a massage etc? pampering is usually a good one to fall back on when out of other ideas.

Theatre’s a good idea though.

She sounds like a right pain in the jacksie, so in the spirit of equality I recommend giving her a good hard bumming.

shoes.. ladies love shoes (wee-ing in them optional)

lol @ stuey 😆

send her prezzie money to a donkey sanctuary or something give her a wee card that tells her this.

that will sort her.

OMG presents get given for anniversaries? I’d have got married years ago if I’d known that! Like proper presents same as christmas/birthdays? Amazing 🙂 10 months 3 weeks til I get mine then 🙂

Take her to an old romantic haunt (such as a memorable day at the seaside from the past).

You could always ask her what she wants – that usually works for me. Failing that jewelery, perfume, a Kindle or an IPad depending on her taste/your budget.

Take her glamping with lots of drugs.

She already ‘adopts’ 2 donkeys and a pot bellied pig at a sanctuary, so not as far fetch/origial as you’d think!

Tried that a few christmas’s ago, asked our mutual friend for advice, apparently I didn’t try hard enough and cheeted by asking for help!

Weekend away at posh hotel (incl meal, pampering etc) – always works with my Mrs.

WTF!

Sounds like she won’t be pleased whatever you do, so save your money and take the flack for doing nothing rather than wasting money.

I wouldnt hang around, sounds like you spend your life walking on egg shells.

Buy stilettos and save the money on the dildo… 😉

Happily, neither my wife or I ever remember our Wedding Anniversary. Bliss 🙂

What a waste of money! How high maintaince is SHE!!!! Anything Mr MC buys me is appreciated, I genuinely cna’t think of one shizzle present he’s bought (there must be one though surely!!!?) bike bits, bike kit, jewellry, books always I’m happy.

every week?

I work away from home all week so it’s a a bit more special than normal.

Wedding Anniversary.

Not married, which then leads tot he argument over which day is the aniversary.

I presume you mean “argument” in a tongue in cheek way!!!

What about a track day? 4×4, hot air balloon ride…how many years is it? Hey you could even propose to her?

We always forget our anniversary!

TINAS – check out my little business http://emmyjane-design.blogspot.com/

We only remembered out last wedding anniversary because my mum sent us a card. On the day we had just landed at Heathrow having just come back from Whistler with our boys!

no we remember when it is, but is your aniversary on your first date, when you first met, first *special cuddle” etc etc etc.

Bunnyhop, I was thinking that when you mentioned handbags on the Pootle so could be onto a winner!

first *special cuddle” etc etc etc.

Aww how romantic.
Before we married, ours was from our first kiss 😳
