Organise a big party, but then delegate all to one of her friends. Sorted.

Men are remarkably easy to please, but I'm guessing you sort of already knew that beforehand.

Yeah. The new rug in the lounge is looking good.

Almost said, nothing as I've never been partnered up around the "right" time, then remembered current squeeze had a significant birthday this year.

I invited myself to his place at short notice (once I found out he didn't have the kids) and spent the better part of a month getting some Coravin kit to him (saga here) which arrived almost exactly a month later than planned. We ate, drank, shagged for a weekend. He seemed happy enough.

A romantic weekend far away from your home.

And further away from Portugal.

I am the worst at buying gifts or coming up with romantic or adventurous ideas.

So - with some degree of seriousness to this request - what have you bought (for your partner) or done (for your partner) for major milestone birthdays?

Misread the description of the Dyson Ball Cleaner and ended up in A&E?

It did exactly what it said on the tin.

An interesting list, considering my question was: what have you bought (for your partner) or done (for your partner) for major milestone birthdays?

World peace.

Thanks, Stan.

Harsher punishment for parole violators.

Tell us saucy Sue... what would you wish for?

Sounds similar to a guy I know who bought his wife car mats for their first anniversary.
It really is the thought that counts.

Gave an oven glove as well once... I just wanted to make sure she wasn't acting pissed off when she got the Dyson... She wasn't.
