Title: Tell my Missus!!! (Vote)
Post by: Albatross on 30 November 2008, 20:29:13
My other half is going home to her parents for Christmas. She has asked my opinion on what to get her younger brother (22 years old and a lager swilling intelligent student).

I have told her that he would love what I have just bought myself, which is a 10" long fly-in-the-house remote control helicopter. It's just the most amazing toy I have had in years.

She is unconvinced.

I just can't believe she's questioning. My 12 year old daughter, like me thinks she's nuts for not seeing it.

Please vote above to confirm that there is not really a guy out there with any sense of fun in the world who would not love one of these as a Christmas present.

Milton Keynes shopping centre. Made by Danbar Toys.

The one I've been practicing with is...

I've managed to master it and can chase the cats wantonly around the house now.

The one hidden under the stairs that she doesn't know I have yet is...

I can see where you're coming from, though a Helicopter wouldn't be for me (radio control car's better). Women think differently to us men & so don't see why such a present would give so much pleasure. If it was shoes or handbags, that would be something else ::) :-?
