I have no idea what to get my brother for christmas. It's got to be a "thoughtful present" as tbh he's got all he wants.
I was thinking a driving experience day in a ferarri, but the only thing is, it's hard to get them off the shelf now in a shop. It's too late to get them online for delivery.
Up to £200 for the present by the way, don't want to go over that figure.
I have no idea what to get him, help!
Thanks

Does he do photography? May be some bits and pieces for his camera.
tbh, it isn't that thoughtful if you haven't got it already 
Ooohh a digital photo frame with pics on from when you were growing up till now?!

Thats a pretty good idea actually deano  I've got a brand new frame upstaires too!
He doesn't do photography mate. I'll have to buy a new memory card now.
Any other ideas?

I have the same problem, but with a different budget, same thing though, he buys everything he needs anyway.

Thanks Lisa
I ended up getting a stunt plane "thrill"
http://www.virginexperiencedays.co.uk/experiences/Aerobatic_Flight_46/
Something completely different and out of the ordinary! I had an option to print out a "temp christmas gift certificate" and the details will be sent through on the 29th. So it's not too bad!
Bought him some armani code aftershave too, for something to open.
Thanks for everyones help.

I'm renting a house cheaply from him in January.
I get on well with him.
We're in the process of setting a business up together.
Everybody has their own reasons I guess.
