I've searched my mind for 4 minutes and I'm unable to come up with anything for Mrs STs 40th. I've thought of weekends away but we've done that half a dozen times this year, thought of a nice watch or Jewellery and been told don't you bloody dare. Spa days, balloon rides or west end shows have all met with a scrunched up nose so I need ideas.

She's a hillwalking,wellie wearing, lab owning kinda girl and is more interest in memories than things.

Help.

Proper wellies. Le chameau, Dubarry or similar type thing.
Not fun colour hunters.

My other half got to be a London Zoo Keeper for the day and then we went to a show afterwards.

How about...

No experience of this at all beyond Google, was looking for my other half and I reckon she'd love it. She grew up with Border Collies and we've just got a Collie/Poodle pup after many years of not having a dog.

Pay an absurd amount of money for Taylor Swift tickets for her and a mate.

She has a significant birthday coming up and has been talking about a puppy?

I'm pretty rubbish at picking up on subtle clues, but that sounds like a hint to me.

Yes trouble is her dog is a trained gun dog, she'll probably want one trained and that'll take ages to get.

I could surprise her with a cockapoo scratchchin

Details, details. Just get her something cute with big eyes. There's literally no way this plan can go wrong.

A dog friendly hotel/lodge stay near a big hill she’s always want to walk up?

Forest holidays at beddgelert and up showdown for example
