    It was my birthday last week and I had noooo idea for presents, therefore everyone gave me money amounting to £250. Now I don’t know what to do with it!

    So – non-bike (don’t need anything) ideas please – I like food, cars, film, music…

    Donate to charity? I believe £250 will get you an enormous sense of well-being.

    …or just get pissed and have a fancy meal.

    Do something you wouldn’t normally do.

    I did a tamdem paraglide for mine 1 year.
    Go to a flash restaurant and get dressed up or something like that

    Slightly over budget, but you could treat yourself and 2 mates to paintball in a tank

    Be incredibly boring and put it in a savings account until next year’s birthday money arrives. Then go travelling.

    £100 on a bread-maker – never buy bread again and always have fresh healthy stuff in the kitchen.

    £150 on a day out with the bird/boyfriend, evening at the ballet (again, bird or boyfriend) and a decent meal 🙂

    For my daughters birthday, I got her a flying lesson in a helicopter for not much more than that.

    She flew a helicopter before ever driving a car….and was able to take a couple of girly friends with her along for the ride.

    One she’ll remember I reckon

    (Something I fancy doing too, if truth be told)

    Don’t bother with the breadmaker. Just get a proper mixer and use the oven you already have – much better results.

    Am thinking I may do an ‘experience’ a la glider suggestion above.
