    I have done all the Christmas present shopping apart from some sweets for OH's stocking.

    For the last few years Mum has given me cash to get myself something. I have today bought myself some fleecy PJs (with cats on!) and a Christmassy throw, from Mum.
    I have annuals for the GGC from her and will give her GDs cash. I have a selection of things for my sister for myself and mum, so that's it (I think!)

      Great idea Daisy. Youngest GS wanted money this year, GS3 is having a mens jewellery box for watches and cuff links, GS2 is having a special gin and coffee beans, GS1 has a voucher for screwfix for his birthday and a special liqueur for Christmas. GD1 is having a charm for her bracelet, GD2 asked for a yoga mat. My Sil always has a jumper, always round neck and navy blue. DD is having a voucher for Space. Dil asked for a Joseph Joaeph bread bin (sad) and DS is having a very expensive watch for his 60th birthday so a special bottle of whiskey for him.4 4 GC are having a secret Santa between them. I am giving the babies money for their parents to bank. They will have so many presents so until they are a bit older they will have money. Phew, GM will now be passing around the hat. Oh I forgot, GD1's partner is having whisky and GD2's partner is having Bamboo socks.

        I am mostly done , my main problem is B ,
        I will give him Money so he can get what he wants himself but its stocking fillers im stuck on ,
        He has everything ,
        Doesn't drink in the house or when we out really , although he does like the odd Brandy so no use buying booze ,

        Has watches etc , no need for new clothes , he has loads in wardrobe still with tags on , has plenty of shoes , so im stuck
        Im not fat just 6ft too small

          Oma - I really sympathise. It's the same with my OH. He does enjoy a good Scotch - about once every 6 months and we've got 2 or 3 bottle in. There isn't even anything he wants for wood-turning at the moment. He's ended up having my old phone and doesn't want a new one - yet! He isn't even using after shave since he grew a beard.

            My OH loved books especially historical ones.

              Plant - that must have been the perfect solution for both birthdays and Christmases. There are certain authors whose books my OH loves and a have got him a couple of those, but no 'big' present yet.
