One of most appreciated things I got for husband was a really nice map of London for wall with cycling routes all marked on. It was from notonthehighstreet. They do all different colours/sizes and framed or unframed. Went down really well and is always a talking point when people come over. Good luck!

I read the end-of-year music round ups and take a punt on a CD (which I'm pleased to say I get right more often than not), same with DVDs, I read SFX and get something interesting that we've missed, or an old Dr Who which has been re-released.


Or a book. He always wants books.

Pebbles, that's a clever idea. Mr Smiler recently agreed to have two gigantic, ugly green old chairs from his father, installed when I was away (we don't have the space and anyway the are horrible), father in law said "glad you could have them, couldn't have sold them, they're a fire hazard!" grrr. I guess could re-upholster them with football shirts, but doubt being emblazened with "rooney" could improve these chairs!
Husband usually gets a really nice bottle from the Whisky Exchange that will see him through the year when he fancies drinking something a bit special. It is becoming an annual thing so the surprise isn't there but he gets really excited about seeing which one I've chosen as they have some really quirky finds. Doesn't help that his birthday is a week before Xmas so get really stuck for presents!

Some time would be a wicked present (probably for either partner). A promise of some time to do what I wanted without inturruption, and a promise that I wouldn't then suffer for it after!!!

How do you retweet on the forum?!


THIS. A thousand times this. The Lions tour DVD is very good I've heard (in case 'er indoors is watching).

    • Re Day One, £52 for a short hair cut (cut & styling) and £72 for a long hair cut (cut & styling) which I believe is below the ears.  £38 for a blow dry which doesn’t appear to be included in the cut price as it’s not mentioned.  £15 for a fringe tidy.      I remember being startled to be charged separately for a blow dry by the salon that used to be in Melbourne Grove but is now closed down.  I was asked if I wanted a blow dry after the cut and highlights and said yes, but wasn’t told that I would be charged separately.  Only found out when I went to pay the bill.    Was offered a voucher on a further appointment.    De.Salon which used to be Cut-Throat in Peckham (Choumert Rd and Brixton) charge from £45 for a Short haircut that finishes by the ears.  They charge from £40 for any haircut that finishes below the jawline.  Their prices include a blow dry.  But if you have thick hair they charge an extra £15 for every additional 15 minutes for cutting.     I had my hair cut there before the name change.  I don’t understand the from part of the price. Had a look at the Blue Tit pricing which is very complicated. They charge depending on the stylist’s  experience.  Crab Salad in Peckham  -  short hair cut above the ear - from £69.    Long hair Cut below the ear from £80. Blow dry not mentioned as being included in the cut but is priced at £55 I noticed that Kuki charge different prices for men and women.  Doesn’t seem right if a woman has short hair and a man has long hair.   I used to go to a great salon in NW London  that charged the same price for men and women and stopped going when they upped their prices for women.  
    • BIAB is supposed to be less damaging to the nails than Shellac. It stands for Builder in a Bottle.
