hi guys and girls,

it's my brothers 40th birthday in a few weeks and i want to get him something that he can keep, not like a dvd or something :lol:

the problem is that i'm skint and only have about £50 to spend - i wanted to get him something like a mont blanc pen but £300 is out of the question right now :shock:

any suggestions? he's already got a nice watch (i know £50 wouldn't get a nice watch anyway) :lol:

cheers

    £50 can get some very nice, and unusual watches!

    I'd get him some nice new flat pedals hehe.

    We'd then have to buy him a bike to put the pedals on SS :lol:

    Younger brother I take it? :mrgreen:

    An english rugby shirt. You've got a few weeks, you could try and get it signed by a few players as well.

    Or play it safe and get a lovely bouquet for £50.

    Blow and (cheap) hookers.
    Or that would be my suggestion if you'd posted in CC. As you should have done.
    Obviously here I would not.

    Good pair of cufflinks? If he wears posh shirts...

    he's a gadget freak, but has just about everything. he loves films so i've been looking at trying to get him a signed movie poster or something.

    he's a vodka drinker unfortunately so whisky would be wasted on him :?
