    Secret Santa Help Needed

    I need some inspiration. I have to buy a Secret Santa present before Monday, and I'm stuck for ideas.

    It's for a chap, he's a Chelsea fan, commutes a LONG way to work. His car was recently written off by a mechanic who cocked something up with the engine.

    Can anyone think of a witty and relevant present?

    Cheers

        A Chelsea key ring sounds ideal.

        If you find this post offensive, please insert "Chan" before and "tho" after, then it should be OK.

          Get him a replica of his car in toy size....that will work if he really loved his car.

          My secret santa present is sorted.

            Buy him a WHSmith voucher that he will later use to buy a book written by Abramovich "How I got rich to buy Chelsea", published by GULAG Press.

              How about the Haynes manual?
