Me and my brother used to pretty much pass the same bottle of whisky (OK, technically a difference bottle of the same whisky...) back and forth until we both realised it was pointless many years ago...

If he drinks alcohol then a decent spirit or wine. Certainly wouldn't buy a male mate aftershave, bit odd imo and might upset the other half. Nothing wrong with a football related gift. Film related t-shirts (classy, left field one) I'd always happily receive if you know my favourite movies. There's plenty of film t-shirt sites.

I was hoping that this thread would give me an idea what to tell the wife to get me for Xmas but I doubt she will be up for getting 3 brasses!

They’ve also nailed Boss bottled I think it’s called X Bolt
