Usually he manages to get his BBQ out once a year......this year he managed it precisely......... zero times.
Tomorrow is D's birthday......as well as being difficult about BBQs.....he is also very difficult to buy presents for [I do hope you're not getting the impression he's a difficult person!].
But then I saw this in Marks and Spencer's sale
and these serviettes being sold off in Morrisons
and then noticed these in Sainsburys
and decided to add these
And, of course, it all needs a card to go with it
Do you think he might see a subtle blatant message here??
The card is a lovely LOTV image coloured with copics.......all the papers are Cosmo Cricket.......the sketch from Stamp with Fun.......and spots and stripes for Stamp Something.

I just love your card! copics is something I do not own - but each time I see them I want them...still love to color! :) You did a gorgeous job on this card!
Oh, Jacky, this card is SO cute! And absolutely perfect. I would LOVE to see your stamp collection sometime! :o)
I know what you mean about boys being "difficult" about BBQ. Happens all the time around here when my husband gets together with his friends and/or brothers! xo
lol!! I'm all for subtle hints, me.... ;-) The card is perfect xx
well, short of hitting him over the head with the book... I think you've done everything possible to convey the message!
I'm with Cheri ... this should do it!
Perfect card! And I love themed presents.

Great card Jackey and hopefully your subtle hints work. Lol! :)
Oh Jacky you've got D nailed there! DH (G's brother!!) and I have just been rolling around the floor - i can still hear him laughing in the kitchen. Hopefully G finds it funny as well!!
Fab gift idea, lovely card (appropriate image too) and loving the Craft Stamper freebie stamp too. A success, I'd say.

A brilliant present - and of course the perfect card to go with it. It'll raise a big smile at the very least :)
Fabulous. Do you think they'll take the hint... Lx
Ha ha, of course he should get the message and with that lovely card, he definitely will xxx
Brilliant, love the card, it's really cute and I love the idea of the presents all leadingon fromone another xx
Its all perfect if not blatant lol but I am sure it will encourage him to barbecue more or never barbecue again lol. The card is so cute and perfectly suited.

Love the gift and the card is perfect!
I'm sure he'll be thrilled & if he doesn't take the hint there's no hope!! That's one awesome card!
hi there, this is gorgeous,I have also dropped by to say that this will be my final visit to your blog for at least a few months, I am going abroad to get married, and coming back to moving house, settling down before I can come back online. I appreciate your kind comments and your visits to my blog, I will try to update it from time to time, but I can not promise. I will miss blogland, take care and catch up soon, from me - wondering if anyone will miss me in blogland...
What a great collection of things to be given! Hope all your thoughtfulness was duly appreciated!
Thanks for the update Jacky. You've given me an idea for D's Christmas present - watch this space!?!
