If you live in the UK, buying presents for the man in your life can be a difficult task, especially if he is the type who never talks about what he wants! The internet is full of great websites with many suggestions and ideas, but most of them their suggestions are just awful. Then, when you do finally find cool stuff that your man would like, you find out that the website only sells to the US! Outrageous.

Fortunately, for those of us who didn’t move across the pond, we still have plenty of options available to source the perfect present for your husband, boyfriend, or brother. You just need to know where to look! Here are some great ideas for men with different interests.

The Adventurer: Easybreath Snorkeling Mask

This mask is doing to snorkelling what the iPod did to the music industry – it will revolutionise the hobby completely. The concept of the snorkel has barely changed since its conception, until now. A 180° viewing angle, a valve that prevents water ingress and the ability to breathe without a rubber tube in your mouth make this an incredible piece of kit at a very affordable price.

The History Fanatic D-Day Normandy Landings Tour

World War II enthusiasts and fans of Saving Private Ryan will love this 3-day tour that takes in the beaches of the famous D-Day landings in Normandyby British, American, and Canadian forces. Discover the incredible battles and see how the fighting panned out over the rugged landscape. The tour also visits the sights of the airborne assaults that took place behind enemy lines, immortalised in the famous Band of Brothers Series.

The Science Nerd: Home Planetarium

In Britain there aren’t too many nights a year that are optimal for stargazing, especially if you live in the city. Plus it’s probably cold outside… do you really want to risk leaving the coziness of your home? Well you don’t have to… because you can now simply set up a planetarium in your own home! The Home Planetarium creates an astronomically accurate projection of either the northern or southern hemisphere (you choose!), complete with shooting stars!

The gadget lover: App Controlled WiFi Bulb

With technology and innovation progressing at lightning fast speeds, it was always going to be only a matter of time before the humble light bulb received a complete makeover. This modern bulb is controllable from your phone or tablet.

Of course you can turn it on and off remotely, but what really makes it great are the other things you can do with it: change colour, set a timer or alarm to wake you up, a dimmer switch, and several different modes to set the right mood at the right time. This is the future people, and its here now!

It is not a secret that every child needs to be motivated in order to achieve its full potential. You cannot just leave your child be and hope for the best. As a Christian parent, you need to do your part and make sure that your child has inner motivation to do the things that are right to do.

I know way too many parents who are tired of constantly telling their children to do house chores or of telling them to stop fighting with their siblings. They simply don’t know how to motivate their kids to behave like Christians, but I would like them to know that there is hope and help in the form of a book that can completely revolutionize their concept of parenting.

This is one of my favorite books on Christian parenting and it is completely based on Biblical principles that are never outdated. If you are tired of telling your children the same things over and over again, you will be relieved to know that things don’t have always to be like that. It is possible to have happy and motivated children without too much struggle.

The book is written in such a way so that parents are aware of all the things they can do in order to make their children motivated and happy. This way they will be prepared for life and they will be ready to face the challenges of life with open arms. They will have a way of discovering that life is fun and that there are many ways to handle every situation and emerge victorious after it.

INSTRUCTIONS: Purchase the book. Send an email with MYC150 Promo in the subject line with a receipt of purchase to [email protected]. Biblical Parenting will send you the link and a special code to access these downloadable video, audio and written products.

If you know me in person, you know that I always like to stay fit and that I am sort of an “exercise addict” (in a good way of course). Let me tell you a few words about who I am and what I do in order to stay fit because exercising is a huge part of my life and what steps I take in order to stay fit on a daily basis.

I began my adventures with jogging when I was about 13 years old. At that time I noticed that there was something about the activity that was making me feel good. When I was 24 years old, I decided to start training and preparing for a local marathon. I was very eager about it and because of this I permanently damaged my left ankle. Because of this, every time I tried to jog I felt this pain in my ankle that just wouldn’t go away. I thought that my adventures with fitness were over, but fortunately this wasn’t the case as I was able to discover something that would change my life forever.

Several years later I was introduced to an idea of an elliptical by a friend of mine. He told me that he bought his own elliptical on a website like this http://yourellipticals.com/ and he has been happy with it ever since. He told me that when you exercise on a treadmill you put a lot less stress on your joints and this is why it is so much better to exercise on an elliptical and give your joints a break. To my surprise, it turns out that the effectiveness of exercising on an elliptical is almost identical to that of a treadmill. The only difference is that you don’t put so much pressure on your joints, which is something I have been looking for.

Your groomsmen took the time and trouble to rent a tux and be in your wedding, so you want to be sure to get them gifts that show how much you appreciate it. Check out these five ideas for great groomsman gifts:

1.        Get guy gear. A silver or leather flask is a classic. Not only can it actually be useful but it’s perfect for male bonding sessions. Your groomsman isn’t a drinker? A good bet is a baseball cap with the groomsman’s favorite team logo. It’s always a cool gift for a sports fan. Another useful guy gadget is a pocket knife – the more features, the better!
2.       Wish fulfillment. Get them something you’ve always wanted but just never bought for yourself such as a pocket watch, velvet smoking jacket – fun to wear, even if you don’t smoke – or an extremely high quality cigar. The gift should be luxurious but not so over the top that you break the bank or even worse, your groomsmen never use it.
3.        Make it personal. You can put your groomsmen’s names or initials on just about anything from cuff links to gym bags. Personalization is a great touch and makes each groomsman gift unique.
4.      Make it an experience. The best groomsmen gifts aren’t always the ones you can hold in your hands. Tickets to sporting events or, if you’re feeling extravagant, tickets for sporting experiences like racecar driving are always appreciated.
5.       Save the best for your best man. Every groomsman gift you give should be something personal. However, make sure you show your best man some love by giving him something that truly shows your gratitude. Courtside seats or tickets to Vegas would not be out of line.

No matter what you choose, the important thing is that the gift is meaningful for you and your groomsmen.
