SWMBO's 40th

Hi all, i'm in need of inspiration please.

It's swmbo's 40th this August and i'm stuck for a present idea.

I've booked the romantic weekend away, i've booked the London show on another weeked and i've booked the party for another weekend.

There just seems to be something missing but i'm not sure what??? All the stuff i've booked involves other people ie me, friends and family.

What about something for her alone. By alone I mean something she can do on her own but not neccesarily be alone. Let me explain what I mean cos even i'm confused. For my 40th, being a bit of a petrol head swmbo payed for me to race formula 3 cars at Rockingham. I was in the car alone but friends and family were there to watch me enjoy myself ( oh god Finless could have a field day with some of my choice of phrases!)

Any thoughts on something like that or am I totally wrong in my thoughts?



P.S. I'm booking a Try Dive for her as a joke, she doesn't fancy diving!!!!

OMG what if she gets the bug????? That could be expensive

At least she might go to Scapa

Safe diving,
Steve

P.S. how about a spa day?

What were her dreams as a kid? Is she into anything adventurous (as in outdoor sports, Paul, I KNOW what goes in that brain of yours!), would go with the spa day if you're really stuck, but everyone does that!

You could book a ballon ride although they are quite expensive if you just want there to be only you two and the ballooneerist.
