because he is too busy at work to read all these little threads nowadays! :mrgreen:
He also didn't expect me to join the forum :lol:
except.... one of you is actually him from another account, then i would be busted! :cry:

He will get exactly that! :mrgreen:
today is his lucky day, I actually felt more generous than usual :twised:
As far as presentation goes, I would have to say no to coconut and mermaid, I really don't think he would be that impressed to see me in those :redface:
But I have worked out another unique way to present it, and yes, will post pics after his birthday, but nothing x-rated :mrgreen:

You guys are too awesome! :mrgreen:

What ? So no coconuts !!?!?!? No PICTURES ? *OR* Video ?

WELL ! I hope HE has a nice Christmas, 'cause *mine* just got wrecked :wink:

..and I think you've upset Kien :mrgreen:

It took me a while to reply because I've been ROFLMAO so badly I was in tears LOL!

The guys are right! Gotta love them all; they're so freaking hilarious!

He wants what he can't have,
The Coconut Bra is killer smart/he'll follow you like a pup,
and you giving him the reins back for a little bit is HUGE good for both of you!

I'm +1 on the 300gal permit... presented with caveat like "it's clear we don't have room to have both so "I thought" it would be wonderful to have a killer show tank..." blah blah blah... This caveat sucks but you'll need to figure out how to cleverly handle that....

And present the Gift Certificate any way you like... mmmmm baby...

But seriously now; the real joy will come from you taking the time to look into how involved this "hobby" is... It's science and love of nature and nurturing all tied up in a great package. You may find the reasons you love this guy have a lot to do with why he loves that tank >:-)

You have a chance to make this the most wonderful Christmas he'll remember forever...

Just a few thoughts from an aged (ok, I'll admit that) cougar.... the ball's in your court honey bun and you can have sooooh much fun!

Merry Christmas!

The Bunny

p.s. change your Canreef location to some province other than where you live now!

:redface: thank you for your advise, they are so true.
perhaps I may think about the 300g in the future.

Although I have already got the gift cards, he was hinting last night that he REALLY wouldn't mind a NICE clam, does any one of you wouldn't mind to part with one? :mrgreen:

yes to pictures, but just not coconut nor mermaid :mrgreen:
this is the season to be jolly, not halloween, don't wanna scare anyone here :mrgreen:

I called it first !!! Gift cert. / card is always the best way to go. Always go with The Grizz's suggestions:biggrin:

Just add a santa hat to the mix with mermaid costume and it's MERRY XMAS for ALL :biggrin::biggrin:

curse you Grizz! I don't need no stinking gift certificate :razz: You've ruined both my birthday and my christmas! :cry:

You would jump for joy at a nice big GC to your favorite SW shop and you know :razz::razz: I tried to add the santa hat to the mermaid costume :twised:

Give him your support, which you already do. Go out with him when he shops for aquarium stuff. I can't tell you how many guys love it when their significant other helps, just don't point at a fish and say "I want it". This way you both win, I have seen a few relationships break up because of tanks.

A BWA gift certificate would be the perfect gift. :twised: Kidding.

On boxing day all our gift cards will be $20 more than your purchase price.
