PaRtZ Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 How about an activity weekend/ day out like tank driving, plane flying, paintballing etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dai the Socket Posted October 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 Good idea but ive looked in to them and most say you have to have held your license for a year, I'll only have it like 9 months, plus they run March - Sep ish, so not possible Keep 'em coming.

Fish-Finger-er Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 if you want a tattoo, and your parents approve of them/dont mind them, let them pay for the one you want, its your 18th, you should have something that lasts, not an xbox360, an a tattoos about the most long term item you can get.however dont let the GF pay for it, cos ur situation with her could change mighty quick, and your stuck with it(not like youd get her name, but itd remind you of her when you saw it, etc)other options include expensive jewellry(not clothes you wear them out, not electrics goods there outdated) like for my 18th, mother got my armani watch, should imagine ill have it most of my adult life. its kind of the way your 18th present should be.

Dai the Socket Posted October 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 Yeah Tattoo is quite a good idea, parents aren't that approving, but I've wanted one for the past 3 and a half years, but haven't decided exactly what yet. It's quite a big decision what to get in my eyes!I've got a £130 Nixon watch already, but I might ask for some kind of bracelet / necklace made from nice silver or something. I might get a share in Apple Computers That'd be cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpson Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 I might ask for some kind of bracelet / necklace made from nice silver or something. For last years birthday (a yearish ago) i picked out a simple silver chain with a cross on it it was about 25pounds and had to get a new chain cos' it snapped on my girlfriends jean buckle oooopps!!! but i wear it every single day and its well worth the money and exactly what i wanted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extreme_biker0 Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 (edited) Some royal mail pre-paid jiffy bags. Haha nice. Nice. So basically you got to send some of the stuff you already own away to other people. Better than nothing I suppo... wait, no it isn't.Edit: I realise the meaning of the above now!

Hmm.Do it - you don't actually 'need' anything right now (just like me) but when you eventually realise you've got enough cash to buy the bike/car you've always wanted you'll be fookin' ecstatic.

Dai the Socket Posted November 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 We went karting. Was RAD. I won too and a lot of my friends should of been better than me. Their excuse of 'your kart was faster' didn't wash Got an O'Neill coat from my mum, with some other clothes from River Island too which are nice. £60 DC's from my sister and her boyf! But they don't fit so I changed them for a difference shoe.A Diesel watch from my girlfriends, and a shirt from her parents, which was nice.DVD's from my mates, and some alcohol+ games lol.and a bloody good shag from the other half. pretty good if you ask me. :) I'm a happy boy.
