according to custom the 10th anniversary gift should be tin ... given our Cornish connections that wasn't too difficult
11th was steel ... that was a bit more difficult
12th ... coming up... is silk
I won't be asking for advice
ok kids 'n kidders.. some of you that have listened to my various posting have known I've sometime asked for help , or direction , in choosing gifts for mrs. G
Thank Gawd I saw this ..... mine is coming up in less than a week ...... and - how should I say this - it wasn't exactly on the forefront of my mind - oops.
But after 16yrs and 2 sprogs the silk days are slowly diminishing.
WEDDING ANNIVERSARY - YEARS 16
16th WEDDING ANNIVERSARY
Modern Anniversary Gift: Silver Holloware, which are table serving pieces such as a teapot, sugar and creamer set, covered casserole-anything that is "hollow" and has a cover.
Travel Anniversary Gift Ideas: Santa Fe or Mexico
Mmmm? - thanks - but I think what she really needs is another power tool or electronic gadget.
and yet you wonder why the silk days are diminishing ?
go on.. buy her a new silver teapot and trust old grynchie, she'll be on you like white on rice.
trust me.
no, really.
She's already got one, and the damn thing always needs cleaning/polishing.
Nah .... she doesn't really like nik-naks and ornaments - something else that needs dusting ..... and I'll have to put up shelves ..... hence the need for new power tools.
really need to cleanse my filthy mind
New motorcycle helmet?
For the silk year why not a trip of the silk road to Istanbul?
thanks Nil, a good idea but we've got another big trip coming up this year.
p.s.. you wanna buy a car? , some house plants ?, various bit of furniture?
I'm sure many women enjoy a bit of DIY , from time to time
Sounds like a move, not a trip!
Say it ain't so, grynchie!
Mmmmmmm, she'll love it...
ohhhhhhhhhhhhh... you DO know mrs. G
Do you deliver them here?
Dare I suggest Mrs G buys you a silk-bound dictionary?
I are spell good
It seems you are not the only one who are spell good..
