    Well mate a bj anal and all that lasts minutes in my gaff.If you can only pick one then its got to be the track bike or new road bike.A track bike could last until you get bored with it or trash it.New road bike if you want one can be a number of things a tourer,a harley or a project.Whatever you choose enjoy it.mmmmmmmm I've got another 6 years to decide :confused:

    Thanks for your input everyone. Some predictable (you know who you are, and should be ashamed of yourselves) and some great ideas.
    Here is the list I gave her last night, in no particular order:

    • Youngest son Jack’s tumour never to return – the best present I could ever get
    • Pannigale S
    • 1 to 1 Track day
    • Dustbin full of Maltesers
    • Nice holiday somewhere hot and private
    • Newspaper from the day I was born.
    • My kids deciding they want to come and live with us
    • Wing walk- love that idea Dave, I don’t like heights but well up for this
    • Nappy for wing walk
    • Ride the wall of death
    • Nappy for wall of death
    • Hublot classic with black rubber strap and carbon face – I have a weakness (and a safe) for my watches
    • 1978 Honda 400/4 F2 in yellow – same as I had back in the day

    Ling’s comment was you have had 50 years to think about this and that’s the best you can come up with.

    Giv, great idea mate and given the other suggestions the hidden balls are not really relevant
    Sideways, you speak for yourself fella, I am sure you can get a cream for that but with age comes patience

    My wife bought me a very nice Tag Heuer Aquaracer Chronograph for my 30th last year and I got her a ltd edition print of painting amongst several other things. Like Freedom, I have a soft spot for watches as them and my wedding ring are the only jewellery I wear, my wife likes her art and we have several ltd edition prints around the house.

    I think it's nice to get something on you 'big' birthdays that will last a lifetime.

    Top present. Proper man present.

    We had people to dinner on Saturday night and Jeanette suggested it would be nice if I polished the cutlery beforehand. An hour later she came looking for me in the workshop and caught me halfway through the service on the rouge wheel on my linisher. She wasn't overly happy that I'd taken her that literally but if a jobs worth doing...
