It's quite traditional to get divorced. A decent surprise too.

A bloke is out to dinner with his wife to celebrate their 1st anniversary.

He says, "So what would you like, darling? A Jaguar? A sable coat? A diamond necklace?"

She says, "I want a divorce."

He says, "I wasn't planning on spending that much."

Most expensive toy in the shop is 'Divorced Barbie' It comes with Ken's car, house and many more accessories... hehe

How about a Wedding memory box? - photo's/card's/gifts's.. Or something along those lines, be creative - she'll love that wink

Book of Karma sutra? Always good...If not only as a joke rolleyes

Baths Salts, book her in for her nails doing, pedicure, manicure. Obligitary night out, party?

Concert tickets? Flower arrangement, can't go wrong.

Hang the traditions!

I got a painting I'd admired in a shop window. Only very modestly expensive (not dear, but not tat). Still gets appreciated by me and everyone else. Worth much more now.


ps. We didn't make it to the 2nd year tho smile

Some friends of ours got a framed copy of the Times newspaper on the day they got wed.
We gave them an origami kit, and a card from Flying Pig (Google it for their online site) which makes up into a model.

Perfect, and generates lots (and I mean lots) of paper which keeps it traditional for the 1st anniversary.

Good point. Win win.

Apart from losing the house bit.
