Default Male Opinions Please

Ok I need some male opinions on this. As some of you fella's out there know Mr Stroker, I was after some hints/suggestions/ideas of what to give him for our first wedding anniversay coming up in November. I know he will read this post very shortly, so please do not put any extravegant ideas into his head (especially a new GT, funds not available).

First wedding anniversary is PAPER (which I think is pretty boring, but you can never have too much toilet paper...)

Hope you all can help me as he pretty much has everything he needs so far. If you do have any good ideas please pm me so he cannot see your ideas.

Cheers

Worthless huh? I can think of a few suggestions but I'd probably get in trouble.

I dunno about your cash, but mine is made from plastic.

If yours is paper, I reckon you might want to stop counterfeiting :P

Just an idea,
I used to do Paper Tole, a few years back, it is where you layer picture ( parts ) upon the original picture, and i remember doing quite a few harleys etc, but there is no reason why could not not get your favorite car pic and use that, you could make it yourself or have it made but if done properly they are a real treasure to keep for many years and provide a great talking point.

i know this sounds forward but i'm sure most men would agree here . the odds are he will get his engine parts anyway regardless of what you do. so he will be very happy with this . from a male point of veiw , take him to a show or dinner book a place to stay overnight . dressup in your sexy clothes and let him fulfill his every desire with you . seriously this is one thing that most men can only dream of. . i'm talking about just you and him here.

have your weding vows put on paper and framed (nice paper/writing) and set a date in the future to renew your vows and the devotion will be worth more than gold.

Thanks for all your wonderful ideas so far.... problem is with buying him car parts I wouldn't have a clue where to start looking, so he won't be getting anything to do with car parts then.

Holden toilet paper sounds good so far..........

Keep them coming!!

Shame on some of you hahaha A wedding annivesary should atleast be somewhat romantic.. A much as I'd love to be a smarta$$ and say a set of tyres i will try to be helpful

Pehaps tickets to an event Matt would like with a nice meal and a hotel room away from the buby for the evening? Picking an event HE likes puts the pressure on him to come up with a gift YOU would like in return.
