Ok so we have threads on kids and mums wish lists but what about Dads?


After 21 yrs together I am finding it more and more difficult to come up with a 'surprise' present.


Can we keep this clean and steer away from the 'wrap yourself up' line, remember this is the ED Forum and not Mumsnet!


Good luck.

I consider myself open minded but the whole beaker incident was wrong.


He likes music, films, cooking and comedy. He is a professional photographer so is pretty much gadgeted up in that respect.


Mid / late 40s.


I think he likes frivolous useful presents rather than needed items.

How do you go about buying one of those, the bikes not the socks??

Plenty to work on guys thanks :)


I have a friend who received just one too many bicycles for midwives in Africa from her mother for her birthday and flipped out a few years ago - has been getting lovely smellies ever since. Once or twice would probably have been ok but I think the annual predictability became too much. She tells the story well.

    • My bird app just picked up swifts before I heard or saw them!  
    • I highly recommend Temi as a very skilled and reliable painter / decorator based in the East Dulwich & SE London area. She has completed many jobs for us over the past 10 years at our property on Overhill Road SE22 and also on Harlescott Road SE15, and we have always been thoroughly impressed with her work. We often leave her with keys and leave her to work her magic, fully confident that she's 100% trustworthy and will always do a fantastic job. If you're looking for a trustworthy local decorator who delivers exceptional work Temi is a great person to call. I'm not affiliated with her or her business in any way and actually found her through a recommendation on the ED forum over 10 years ago, i just like to recommend really good tradespeople who deserve a thank you.

    • Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Leon. Very reasonably priced and called out on the same day I contacted him! 
    • ''He caused chaos  in this country with his put down of everything British and his many dismal words about the effects of Brexit on this country.'' What utter tosh. Carney had to mitigate the effects of Brexit caused by plastic patriots like Farage. For example, immediately after the 2016 Brexit vote the BoE had to intervene fiscally by dropping interest rates and increasing QE in order to prevent the economy from taking a big hit.  They were unable to prevent the £ from crashing at the time, and it has since been worked out that the effect of that alone caused a circa £900/year hit to each UK household, which equates to the UK @ £450m/week.   There's reams of data out there that shows the economic damage Brexit has caused to the UK. Here's one looking at business investment, admittedly not very sexy but kinda important if you want to achieve economic growth. It's clear to see that prior to 2016 we had reached parity with some of our main rivals, but since then we've flatlined. All that Brexit has achieved is to win the race to the bottom. There's a reason why Farage never brought up Brexit at the last election, he knows himself it hasn't delivered on any of the promises, quite the reverse in fact.  Labour, stupidly, by saying they can make Brexit work have in effect given Farage a Get Out of Jail Free card...
