Boonie Hound Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 It's Mrs B's birthday at the weekend and I need to get her a present. She will be getting the Two Towers on DVD when the special edition comes out in November. But I need something for her to open at the weekend. She will obviously get the obligatory flowers and visit to a restaurant. Jewelry's out Toiletires are out - there is just no more room for any more. I would hire a 7 but let's face it that's a present for me. All suggestions gratefully received... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FH Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 #1 A day of pampering at a really exclusive Health Spa, with aromatherapy, facials, nails (toesies and fingerys) and an all-over massage 😳............or is this a bit too close to "the day job"? #2 A day with a specialist hypnotist, well versed in the art of persuading non-believers that a Caterham is a "must-have-before-I-bust" part of their life's achievements #3 A noo pair of walking boots #4 A silk scarf..which just happens to have pix of Caterhams all over it #5 A year's subscription to her favourite magazine #6 Tickets to see fave singer/group/mudwrestler/sporting event #7 Well, that speaks for itself #8 Vouchers redeemable for decorating parts of house/DIY jobs/use of "Boonie's body" in unexpected ways I think I'll get my coat and shovel...................

Barbarella Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 Clothing of some kind ? Be careful here Boonie - stats say that us girlies like to buy black underwear for ourselves, blokes often buy us red and we don't like it much. Perhaps you'd better stick to wooly socks - better for those winter blats anyway Se7en's - the most fun you can have with clothes on Barbarella here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meldrew Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 Enough pussyfooting around. 1. A Caterham Scalextric set 2. An L7CGB calendar 3. A "Happy Motorist" car-washing kit 4. A big box of spanners in the right sizes for building a Caterham 5. A Caterham-branded item of clothing (nb I don't think they do lingerie) 6. The signed picture of Colin Chapman I saw in shop on the strand a week ago 7. A limited slip diff (for a Caterham, of course) 8. Flowers artistically arranged into the shape of a Seven There. Sorted!

Hibster. Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 use of "Boonie's body" in unexpected ways Is this the one that you keep under the stairs 😳 My ideas a) A night out with the Randy old games teacher b) one of these useful forms here. Then you could just go and buy a Seven (after you get back from the cleaners) c) a night out with me (like (a) only much worse) d) a high performance sports bike (180mph +), that should make a Seven seem even more sensible e) A baloon flight, champagne at dawn etc f) Steam train driving day here - ooops that looks like more one for me g) A voucher to have your body frozen when you pop your clogs h) As above but involves taxidermy instead of nitrogen i) A voucher to have "Boonie" tatooed across Mrs B's back j) Special training for the Boonie Hound to turn her into a tea room killer k) A trip on the Orient Express (v, expensive) l) A trip of the Stanstead Express (as above but much much cheaper) m) Feeding the tigers in Broxbourne here n) A nice new ironing board here may be shortly followed by (b) o) A trip down memory lane with an old friend here - aaaaaahhhhh sweet p) something to wear now the long winter nights are here here q) None of the above Paul 😬 Supercheese R250 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boonie Hound Posted October 14, 2003 Author Share Posted October 14, 2003 c) - watch it she may then feed either you or me to the tigers - which isn't a bad present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hibster. Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 But if Mrs B feeds Mr B to the Tigers (or to the Tigger* as it's Pooh's birthday) then that would remove the need for form (b) Paul * What does Tigger eat ? Does he consume Boonies ??? Supercheese R250 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boonie Hound Posted October 14, 2003 Author Share Posted October 14, 2003 I have sworn to protect Boonie - accept when the dog is bigger or smaller than me, or if I have a stick, or if the attacker gives me cheese or a Boneo and if there is a Y in the day....

Boonie Hound Posted October 16, 2003 Author Share Posted October 16, 2003 Now you don't see that everyday 😬 Thanks all for your helpful suggestions. Plan is as follows: Buy a couple of gifts today that I can hide for Saturday - A to Z of Cambridgeshire to stop her getting lost and some sort of calendar maybe. Flowers Take her to Cambridge tomorrow and treat her to lots of Clarinet releated stuff from the music shop - meal - and anything else she wants to buy (LUsh is probably going to be a must) Meal at restaurant Take her to cinema for Finding Nemo and then possibly over the weekend a picnic at Thetford with the hound and if she is very lucky and her back is up to it a go on the rope adventure park thing there.

Rachael Posted October 16, 2003 Share Posted October 16, 2003 That sounds like a great plan - she's very lucky. Wish her Happy Birthday from us Enjoy Finding Nemo, it looks like great fun, might take my ickle brother to see it at the weekend.
