A watch that changes with international time zones or a headset for pilot to co-pilot, wireless infared of course.
He probably has autopilot already so he can walk back through to cattle class.
Or what about those stockings to stop DVT, on the long flights. Oh, that's right, you don't need them in business class. LOL. Good luck Mrs R

To my child bride.........
Darling, I've told you before that one of your lovely smiles would be ample sufficiency as a gift to me. If you can organise it so I get one from each of the boys as
well; I'd simply be on cloud 9.....
Cheers

"To my child bride"......... Cradle Snatcher
"he rides like evil bloody kaneeval"........ Like Father Like son LOL
Annette, I know what he really wants but he doesn't deserve it yet so make him wait.
How about a pair of Jocks and a couple of pair of socks or a Toyota car book and let him dream on

It's the old fart here (not Annette.....)
Looks like a great tool......I've got HEAPS of dull bits (I mean the ones in the shed, NOT the one in my dacks!!!)......might have to see if the local engineering
shop has got one!!! Could save me a few hundred $$$ over the coming years if it's as good as the testimonials say it is.
Cheers mate

If you go for the drill doctor Roachie you can buy it locally. Got a junk mail catalogue at work this morning and had one in it.
Just sing out if you need the name of the place and I will look it up.

A 10 " Bedourie steel camp oven for $ 32 on sale at Rays Outdoors.
I can get one for you & you can settle later if ya want.
I got one today for me from my kids....well I got it on their behalf as they were asking what they could get me ...........I happened to 'overhear' their discussion.
Always wanted one but with two cast iron camp ovens could never justify a Bedourie. Now the kids just owe me 1/3rd each of $ 32.....might take months to be repaid, eh?

Hi Annette,
Don't know if it suits but Nissan has some alloy looking kick plates for the entry at each door of the GU's. They are double sided taped to the existing plastic kick trim, but these alloy look ones are flash IMO. I will try and take a photo of the one's I have on my truck and get back to you if you want? will wait for your response till I do this though to save putting photo's up here for no reason.
Cheers, Trevor.

I can just see Annette going down the street on her supercharged mower to pick the kids up from school. Maybe a little motor that she can fit to her treddly. I mean that we usually buy presents for our spouses that we really want for ourselves.
