It cant unfortunately, back in 2004 I had a severe eye infection in the right eye, which caused some scaring to appear at the back of my cornea, so that's out of the question

Oh well if we have to be good...... what about a large photo frame filled with photos of you growing up, and family ones etc?
Should I tell your parents this?
I think personal prezzies, that the folk make themselves always go down well!

Re: My Birthday
If there is really nothing you want, you could ask for donations to a favourite charity?

Re: My Birthday
OK, on a serious note. Our son is now 28 and I remember how hard it was to find something for his 21st that would be a lasting reminder. He isn't a big jewelry wearer and he had enough cuff links passed down from his two Grandads to sink a battleship. Like Wayne our son always has his mobile with him so a buying him a wrist watch wasn't any good.
We eventually settled on a modern silver pocket watch and stand. It may sound a bit old fashioned but he uses it as a bed side time piece and on the occasions that he has to wear a formal suit he assures us that he enjoys the novelty of using it.
I have included links to the watch and stand we bought him and I can thoroughly recommend the maker Dalvy and Harrison & Simmonds as a supplier.
