I have 6 hours to get the Mrs a present before I go home. This is Doha not Dubai so choices are limited to Lulu.............

I cant get her, Watch, Handbag, Necklace, Earings, Ring, Bracelet as she has had these things. She has mentioned a laptop, though she uses her Ipad.

I know she would love some louboutins but I have spent way too much lately and it means driving to Doha's equivalent of Meadowhell - Villaggio.

Any ideas please?? - And she doesn't do sport.

Drive to The Mall on the D Ring . Inside there's a Mac shop opposite Hugo Boss , splash out on a nice little Mac Air then cross the center to Salam and pitch for a classic bottle of Channel No 5

More than enough get out of the doghouse tokens in that.....

Personally i'd have gone Jo Malone / Louboutin....

She needs something to open.............

Got her perfume on way to Vegas - so thats out. I am trying to keep the cost down - Mac Air will cost me more than the red soled shoes.....! Any places near to Spinneys in that Mall CDB?

There's a Mont Blanc shop in there , a nice card holder or key ring . Fire in a bunch of flowers from that Florists in Spinneys and bingo .

So sad, but if she's into cooking - a fab Kitchen Aid or Le Creuset dish. Or L'Occitane, their honey range of products are lovely. I received a box of shower gel, hand cream, body lotion and scrub which are just delicious.

Some smart earrings or a pearl ring?

Sounding good to me, Stick to D-Ring and no need to detour on way home.

She would not get the pan idea. I think it's a good idea and something that will last. Did necklace and rings already this month for wedding. Really as they were a surprise I should of stated they were an early present..........

A key ring from your dealership...Cheap, personal and useful!

I have some Merc ones, also got a Merc Bluetooth kit I could throw in. Must be something else in my desk............

Now your thinking

Godiva chocs plus some cash in an envelope gift wrapped nicely so she can save for the shoes she really wants!i

Is cash not a naff gift though that smacks of I couldn't be arsed to get you anything?

Lube and a king size pack of rubbers.

Flowers. Get some regardless.

Mont Blanc is a good idea from the suddenly metrosexual and feminine-aware CDB!

Get the red bottomed shoes - they're pricey but a standalone gift that'll blow her mind I expect.

Then use the first gift and last gift together, with her touching her toes and you get a present too.
