Today I went to a birthday party, and the older I get the more I appreciate not getting presents that cannot be used for something. The same goes for many of my friends. We just don't want thingies, we have what we need and we don't want to pretend liking something we do not want on display, or hidden in a drawer only to come out when that particular person is visiting.
So today I gave a some feet paraphernalia to a 57-year-old man. Not a traditional gift I admit, but his wife had told me he had problems. So foot rasps, and baby oil (took me ages to find since baby oil is not sold in the health department, but in the kids ditto, with which I'm not familiar!) he got. First a nice footbath, then rasping, rasping, rasping with different tools, finally baby oil all over the feet and socks on top, before going to sleep and waking up with baby feet.
Try it! I do it myself even if I'm not 57.

hmmm, I'm not sure how happy I'd be if I got a present to fix a 'problem' my wife(husband) told friends I had ;)

As long as it's not intimate.
