They’re not called golden years for nothing!- Retirement gifts

Orient Express man, staffListen… do you hear that?? The sound of blissful retirement

In my opinion, the idea retirement sounds like heaven. I’m sure you as well as I can appreciate that relaxing is so much more rewarding if it has been earned. Well those young at heart family members certainly have earned it! So to celebrate their retirement, and pay them back for all those years of £20 notes… it’s never too late to say a hearty thank you!

white reindeer in snow‘Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house,
All creatures were stirring, from reindeer to mouse…
For two happy children had asked for a gift,
(They were fed up of ties, and socks left them miffed…)
of a Reindeer called Bob, who gave them both joy,
and oodles of love unlike average toys…
So move over jumpers and poor presents shift,
house Rudolph this Christmas from us…Buyagift.’ Read more

It’s a date…- Personalised Christmas calendars.

cliff-richard-free-xmasEach and every year for the past decade I have suffered the same festive indignity that not even the nattiest of Christmas knitwear could equal.  For nearly forty years, my mother, Alison, has been harbouring a not-so-secret passion for spiritual stud-muffin Cliff Richard.  Too embarrassed to give in to her annual request for the latest Cliff calendar, my father delegates the unfortunate duty to yours truly.

“It’s not for me!” I routinely insist at the HMV tillpoint, with more than a hint of desperation in my voice.  “It’s for my mum”.  A slight arch of the shop assistant’s eyebrow and I’m officially a broken woman. Read more

Prepare for blast off with our great galactic gifts!

moon-estatesJust like almost every other person on the planet, the majority of us here at Buyagift would like nothing more than to take a rocket to the moon. Unfortunately though, that’s unlikely to happen soon – it can take several years to become a fully trained astronaut, and besides, we’d probably all fail the fitness test. If we were able to blast into space though, we’d now have a new reason to be excited, as NASA’s newest test rocket is preparing to launch. Read more

Derek from Dudley went a bit too far on his Christmas decorations this year...

While we here at Buyagift would hardly count ourselves as style icons (think more Joe Bloggs than Luis Vuitton), we like to think that we can tell the difference between a work of art and a design disaster. It’s not that we’re adverse to donning feather boas and purple jumpsuits; it’s just that we appreciate the value of subtlety and simplicity – something that especially applies to Christmas decorations.

Shake things up with a Cocktail Masterclass

October 14, 2009 by Tim · Leave a Comment 

Eye of newt and toe of frog, wool of bat and tongue of dog – this may be a recipe from Shakespeare’s Macbeth, but it’s not too distant from the lengths some people are going to in order to create unique foods and drinks. Partly inspired by the eccentric meddling of the senses enjoyed by the likes of Heston Blumenthal and El Bulli, a bar school in East London has begun teaching students the unusual art of molecular cocktail making.

SPECIAL OFFER: 50% off all personalised cards – ONE WEEK ONLY

thestig_cookiesChristmas Cards can be one of the best and worst things about the festive season. On the one hand, receiving them is brilliant – a thoughtful token of goodwill and a charming traditional treat. What isn’t pleasant though, is receiving at least five versions of the same generic supermarket multi-pack card, each featuring a very similar ’sentimental’ message, hastily scribbled in order to be ready for the big day.

You can avoid making your loved one’s mantelpiece look like a poorly-designed shop display this year with our brilliant personalised Christmas cards. And what’s more, we’ve come up with an exclusive offer that will save you massive amounts of money on these great festive gestures. Think of it as our present to your pockets. Read more

Fancy a cup of tea...anyone?

We’ve all had our fair share of unusual dinner guests. Whether it’s the Uncle with the worst manners known to man or the Cousin who refuses to eat anything other than tinned tomatoes and bread, there are someone people who eat like…well, they eat like animals. However, I’m sure none of us have had a guest as unusual as one particular group of diners. Wildlife enthusiasts exploring the Arctic Island of Svalbard had their lunch interrupted recently – by a hungry Polar Bear!

Set the kitchen on fire (not literally!) with a cookery lesson

October 5, 2009 by Tim · Leave a Comment 

man opening a pot cookingWith so much attention being focussed on master chefs such as Jamie Oliver and Gordon Ramsay, it’s not surprising that you might have missed the latest culinary sensation that’s sweeping the nation. No, it’s not meatball football or omelette gymnastics (although we wish those things existed). Instead of visiting restaurants, budding cooks are opening their own – in their homes.

Dubbed ‘Supper Clubs’, dinner events are advertised through social networking websites, offering food enthusiasts the chance to experience a unique style of fine dining. Similar to scenarios seen on shows such as Come Dine with Me, guests as invited to eat with complete strangers, making for a much more communal take on the typical dining out experience. Read more
