Wedding gift for work colleague (guy)?

[Kentish]

Work mate of mine is getting hitched and we feel we should get the happy couple something.

He has a focus ST and is really into cycling and she is really into art.

They are both very early 30's.

Something they can both enjoy would be best

Serious suggestions please

I know you lot too well!

buy off the wedding list.

We don't have that - they are not inviting work colleagues, just friends and family.

Otherwise, yes we would

Pay for a pre-nuptial agreement.

They'll thank you in the end.

How about a cycling art trip?

There must be organised arty trips where you can take your own bike (but not wear your silly Lycra).
Failing that how about a dogging booklet.

I know a bar that has a whole POP art style feel to it. One of the 'displays' is a kids chopper style bike mounted on the wall (I'm too young to know what it is!).

Looks good to be fair.

Bit left field I know!

Sorry to bring this up but WTF does that mean?

I've heard people say this (repeatedly) but never seen it written. It's an odd saying to be sure.

And it should be "too be fair" shirley?

decanter and six glasses

Same as saying "if I'm being fair"?

[Kentish]

ask him in casual conversation where they are holding theirs- you can then search the relveant website by surname!

Nothing.

If he doesn't consider you a friend, why are you buying him a gift?

That's what I thought. Also, if you buy him something, it might make him feel guilty for not inviting you.

Not invited to the wedding? What on earth are you getting him a gift for?

That's a bit mean!

You can't invite everyone you know

That's exactly what I was going to suggest - the 30's type posters are brilliant - maybe get them a trio of related prints and put them in very simple, thin frames.

How about you organise a cycle trip to pick up a painting of a Focus ST?
