Better Than A Diamond Ring Or Even A Vacuum Cleaner

---

One of the best presents I received recently was the gift of vouchers, surprisingly enough. I know, I always thought that vouchers and tokens are normally a bit of a lazy gift but this time they added convenience and choice to a quite wonderful idea.My man is usually useless at picking gifts for women [1], not just me, you should have seen some of the things he's bought his mother in the past. I don't know, possibly it's the way boys are raised, in which case it's her own darn fault that she always gets such rubbish gifts, she should have thrashed him more soundly as a child, she'd get better presents now! Anyway, the vouchers he bought for me last year were for a spa break [2] which I'm certain he must have had some advice selecting, whatever happened, rather than trying to wrap up a clothes airer to look like a diamond necklace and studs or a ironing board disguised as a weekend for two in Paris he gave me spa vouchers [3] which were redeemable later on at a time of my convenience and I got to choose the treatment I received. Honestly, I can imagine leaving a decision on which specific treatments I had with him, somehow, somewhere he would have found a treatment called Jungle Roar and Light Trauma and thought it a fantastic choice for Christmas!No, instead of that, I had a wonderful time being pampered and treated like royalty and where I might normally feel a little bit guilty about spending money on myself and coming away with absolutely nothing to show for it but a lightness of step and a deep glow I was able to forget all about the cost because it was all being paid for by him, wonderful!All I'm left wondering is, who did he get to help him make such a well considered gift?
