Off for the weekend.
Phew, what a busy couple of days, first things first though, my Knit picks options set arrived today. These are like gold dust here in the UK, and I am just thrilled to have it, thanks to a new friend met over at sockapalooza. I recommend visiting her here. So now I have to start a new project so that I can start using them. I'm thinking of using up my debbie bliss DK cotton for either this or this?!? ho hum, I really can't decide!
We (hubby & I) are going camping this weekend, so probably not a lot of time for knitting, but I'm sure he will let me get some done, when he's not dragging me up a mountain. He is such a sweetheart, I don't think I mention that enough here, he has agreed to let me have my spinning wheel, and I have agreed to let him spend an equivalent amount on a gift for himself. Bless his cotton socks though he has no idea what to buy!
So if any one has any ideas of what a man in his 30's who has all of the latest consoles, and a fab PC already, who doesn't drive, whose hobbies are painting & military history, and is already a snappy dresser, could spend the equivalent money to a spinning wheel on, I'm sure he will be very grateful to hear them!

Military history...does he do war gaming? I know you can spend a lot on little minatures for the war games. Or are there conventions he would like to go to? What a nice hubby!
Okay. Probably too late, but what about one of those runners' watches with GPS tracking? I think Garmin makes the one I am envisioning. You can walk your distance, and upload the info into your pc. How would I know? Let's just say there are a bunch of runners in my office and they all received those watches last Christmas/Hannukah!
=:8
Does he like stuff like RC gliders or helicopters? You can get some pretty cool ones now.
(Also too late, but hey!)
If he is interested in military history, there are a lot of groups that do recreations of certain battles. I am sure he could spend about that much to get outfitted for participation in such a group (like recreation of a civil war era uniform).
A friend of mine - also huge military history buff - had as his bday gift a ride in a tank. He loved it! I can find out more details if you like!
