Christmas is a time everyone looks foward to - especially the presents bit. But if your loved ones are difficult to buy for, Christmas shopping can be about as appealing as discovering your organic, free range, all-singing all-dancing turkey has to be hand-plucked by you... on Christmas Eve... when you’d much rather be tucking into the eggnog with all the festive good cheer you can muster.
Generally speaking, women are easier to buy for, as boyfriends and husbands have been carefully trained in their partners’ likes and dislikes for years. And even if the lingerie is four sizes too big and the perfume smells only marginally better than the sprouts, most women can fake a smile. But the men of the house are notoriously picky and their general look of disinterest is all too easy to read. So, to give you a helping hand, here are our top ten things to buy your partner, from push-the-boat-out gifts for those in new relationships, to the staple stocking filler for a man that’s become part of the furniture:
1. For boys of all ages buy a Sony Playstation 3 – let’s face it, it’s a guaranteed winner.
2. If the man in your life is more adventurous than that, give him indoor sky diving lessons. See www.airkix.com
3. Treat him to the much sought-after MechRC Robot - what happens when a robot inventor and a Transformers’ artist are left in the same room together!
4. A Washable Computer Keyboard can make snacking at his desk an altogether more pleasant experience.
5. Bring out the inner child in him with a Bladez 3D Toy Helicopter.
6. Play-time is never over with a Glo-in-the-dark Frisbee.
7. He probably needs no encouragement to drink beer, but a Beer Machine Brew Master will ensure he spends more time at home and less in the pub.
8. Let him make his own solar-powered boys’ toys with the 6-in-1 Solar Robot Kit.
9. Make sure he does his bit by buying an acre of rainforest from the World Land Trust in his name. Find out more at www.worldlandtrust.org
10. And finally, The SAS Survival Handbook, just in case he decides to leave the sofa anytime soon!
Good Luck!
