    I'm all for experience presents, as he'll probably get loads of aftershave, sports gear, etc. for his birthday.

    Bring him on a date, or get him tickets to a match or gig.
    You could also get him some sort of activity day package (clay pigeon shooting, archery, paintball) or something.

    If he likes soccer/GAA maybe get him his favourite teams kit? A nice engraved watch or something possibly, a ring?:)

    If I don't get him a good present, we could be experiencing issues! :P therefore i'm trying to prevent ''issues'' :D

    Thanks guys, I'd love to get him something completely different ElleEm said he'll probably get loads of aftershave, sports gear, etc.
    ...i like the engraved watch idea/ring but is a bit too much? :/

    How long have you both been going out?

    What's your budget?

    Ah then I wouldn't stress over it too much! I think something like a sports jersey or GAA tickets like others suggested would be about right :)

    Just be careful when you're picking out the card to make sure it doesn't have the word love in it if you haven't said it to each other yet :pac:
