Who knows. I just really wanted to give him his gift. I don't think I've ever been that excited to give someone something. I put a LOT of thought into it. So here it sits on a shelf reminding me of the conversations I could have had but never will Ahh.. the joys of living

Where did you get the Land Rover model?? I have a couple of smart car r/c models and a Land Rover model would look good with them.

A lot of the rover parts retailers had little gift idea models.

Hey Christina, thanks for looking after your ACE mechanic you sneaky little thing! I ate all the chocolates and am about to do a dooky in my drawers, my tummy hurts. Not sure what the "balloons" are for....... I'll fill em with champlain and toss em at the Cherry Ball on New Years. The gloves and lip gloss will keep me sexy looking...... and the Diary of my neurotic issues is already filled out, need somebody to sign it with a Doctoral degree. I can't believe you found my truck behind the building.....on helluva stalker I'll say.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Doug! I was hard pressed for ideas and figured that you could use some protective wear seeing as you're out there pulling granny's out of snowbanks 24/7. Wouldn't want you to chap something! I'm sure you have a bird's eye view of everything that transpires by your truck so as the saying goes, it takes one to know one
