    May I suggest one of the most original Idea for a Birthday is a Personalised Song on a CD. You can get a completely new song written and preformed for you and made into a CD. Or get one of their special songs personalised and preformed and made into a CD.

    I did this for Mrs Kodiak last year and it was a Fantastic present and Mrs Kodiak Loved it. There are several sites that do this and here are some links. The one I used was the Link at the very top and I highly recommend them. :-

    http://www.give-a-song.com/

    http://www.giftsongs.com/index.shtml

    http://www.songlegacy.com/

    http://www.songsqueeze.com/

    .

    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.

    I bought my OH 40 bottles of malt, all different.

    I did start buying them 2 years in advance so managed to take advantage of any deals that were on.

    He is still drinking them 6yrs down the line.
    Some people are like Slinkies. They're really good for nothing. But they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

    I live in Middle Quarter outside High Halden. My wife and I cycle to the Chequers in the summer quite often for a pint.
