I once bought my wife an ironing board cover for christmas. Not the whole ironing board, there was nothing wrong with the one she had, apart from the cover being a bit tatty.
She's now my ex-wife, I'm still not sure where it went wrong.
I hit a result with Mrs O's birthday last week, I was in a panic the lunchtime before but then went into a bike shop. One Rockshox Reverb seatpost later, result.
Seems to have gone down well, but waiting to see if it comes back up again just as well.
tickets to x=-factor/strictly/forgotten bands seem to go down well with my missus.

This is the difference between women and men.
Buy a bloke a nice power drill or a socket set for Christmas, and he's as pleased as punch.
Buy a woman an iron or a new microwave and she cops a strop!

I've also discovered that applying reverse logic, and buying a woman a power drill for Christmas doesn't make them happy either ๐

I've also bought my wife a soup making machine, she'll love that.
The trick is to make sure you include a variety of presents for ladies. It's no good just buying them a hammer drill. They might really want one (and what girl wouldn't?) but they want something romantic and girly as well usually.
So also make sure you buy something that makes them feel special while they're putting those shelves up.
A soup making machine? Are you being serious? Isn't it just a saucepan?
