True
Lard and a copy of the Daily Fail or Nuts.
voucher for nice restaurant, plane tickets to somewhere nice. Fulfils the paper nonsense without being a rubbish gift
binners - steady on old boy, it's only the [b]first[/b] anniversary. Keep a sense of proprtion (and she'll thank him for his financial awareness)

get her pregnant.
Don't set the bar too high, you'll be setting a precident for future years 😉
for my first anniversary i bought the wife a share certificate with this company who specialise in them and send them out framed. It's the gift that keeps on giving because as a share holder of a company you get an annual bumpf about how the company is doing and also some of the profits, if just one share it's like a couple of pence but it's always a laugh when she gets a cheque every year for 6 pence.
We bought each other plane tickets to Tuscany - Ah, the memories 🙂
I got one of these, got shut of the wife before Anniversary 2 but I've still got the pen. I use it for all important documents so it's a constant reminder never to sign anything that enters me into a legally binding partnership agreement with a woman.

Liberator cushion.
Paper - so a copy of 50 Shades of Grey.
And as you've been married a year you'll need something to spice things up anyway 😉
On our first anniversary the last Harry Potter book came out and we were on holiday on a Greek island so I ordered a copy (before we went) and had someone courier it out for my wife so she had it the day after release.
Not done anything remotely as romantic since though.
you realise if you start with the whole paper thing she'll expect it each year, there's some incredibly expensive themes and some really challenging ones on that list!
A copy of the Karma Sutra to remind her of life before marriage?

4th is "fruit or flowers". Piss easy for me as the man to get her a bunch of flowers. I kept dropping hints that her only option was to get something made by Apple but it fell on deaf ears!
I've just had my 12th, which is silk. My wife got me some cheese - a nice piece of Stichelton and a block of Montgomery's, which my daughter's then ate most of.
It's lace next year. I'm already hoping - for more cheese.
Presents for anniversaries?
Got a bottle of leffe for my anniversary today all is good.
Another reason to be grateful for not being married....

Nah! Leffe isn't that bad.
I made the mistake of being clever...I bought her a guidebook to Barcelona with the promise to whisk her away for a romantic long weekend.
It's been 3 years now and she still goes on about that long weekend.
We went back to the place that we got married, stayed over and had a posh meal for our first anniversary this year. TBH i wish that she'd bought me some lard.
Presents for anniversaries?
Yes, we've never done this. Or cards for that matter.
We just both take the day off work and go out somewhere nice for the day and have a meal in the evening.
Failing that. Chicken in a tin?

Blo*job - it will have been at least a year since the last one.....
