I'm also a big believer that mp3 players with attachements for listening to them in the car are a good gift. They aren't only for music, you can download podcasts, audio books, radio shows etc. All good things for the woman on the go.

Good grief. She doesn't do PINK!

She does purple. I hate purple. In 20 years I have never told her this!

Well what does she enjoy? Does she actually enjoy being in the kitchen? My bestest ever present would be a kitchen aid mixer.  cloud9:

Miss D wants a stick of rock from Spain. I can't imagine what she is on about. Do they do rock?

Well, there are rocks yes, but I'm not sure they exist in the sweetie variety. There are far better things to bring back!

 Not me....think you are getting your women mixed up ..I want things that will last  lol:

As for your dilemma's - why don't you organise a nice weekend away for the two of you ... city break / country retreat ...whatever floats your boat. If you don't want to go or child care might be difficult arrange it for her and her best mate - that way they are guaranteed to have a good time. You will get shed loads of brownie points and a harmonius christmas all round.
