Oh you lucky, lucky thing I bet you're over the moon. Just goes to show you how much he loves you. Knowing how much you like to be on the boat he's bought you a present that will make your stay even more comfortable. How lucky you are to have made such a catch.
Count yourself lucky. For my last birthday Mrs F gave me a toilet seat (albeit for the boat), a mug with a rather endearing 'Biggest B.....d in the World' painted on the side and popcorn making machine. I think she's trying to tell me something but I'm buggered if I can work it out.
You're a girlie, you tell me?
Perhaps, like most men, you spend so much time on the toilet reading that you might as well have a comfortable seat and a cup of tea in there. The popcorn - roughage ??
So do we guess that sex is right off the menu tonight then?
To save any other chaps the problem of what to get the other half, try this website. www.supriseyourwoman.com. Honest, it's for real and has got some real corkers. He could have got you a weekend sailing. Nice X channel sailing trip could have been good fun eh pauline? Personally I'd have bought you the "parachuting without a chute" experience, or the weekend health farm\beauty break in Kabul.

Note the gaps between 12 and 15, and the long four-year gaps from 15. A dehumidifier would be an excellent choice for year 11, or anytime from year 13 onwards to protect the woollen and silk items from mildew.
For other years not listed above, perhaps a burglar alarm or a smoke detector would be appropriate, or perhaps some dusters and Pledge, all aimed to look after the wood, china and crystal gear. Or a cardboard box to keep it all safe in the garage?
So, praps a very thoughtful pressie after all? Let's hear it for Mr B!
