40th birthday present ideas
« on: May 23, 2010, 01:11:06 PM »
I keep getting asked what I want for my 40th but haven't got a clue. I think I may have most of the material things I need but maybe I just lack imagination and that's where the forum can help.  Any ideas you have would be gratefully received - what do you buy the 40 year old blues/rock/jazz guitarist with a borderline beer addiction?

I will watch this thread with great interest...  I'm 40 next May, and I've already run the concept of "a really nice guitar" past the wife, and she didn't throw anything at me...

They can't afford Kelly Brook.

Get a custom Feline Lion.  :D

stairlift?

(i'm kidding)

if you have everything you want, go on holiday somewhere nice? EDIT: I'm not sure if that'd work as a present, but people who are getting married are starting to have "funds" held by a travel agent to which people can give money, rather than a wedding present.

A new guitar is a great idea for a Landmark birthday- something special would fit the bill. I did it and haven't regretted it for a moment.
