Little Things
Hiya I thought i would make a post where we could all add the little things that we do for our loved ones while they are on tour and hopefully it will give others some inspirations when stuck with ideas on what to send next   AS you know my hubby has just come back off a long tour 2 weeks ago and i was always looking for new things to do for him 100 reasons- Eblueys are great , i sent 10 of them each with 10 reasons why i love him on them for the lead up to valentines day which he loved as it was unexpected  Could easily be done for anytime of the year though

Re: Little Things
i made up a box to send, but the only thing in it was his favourite sweeties (barley twists) and i stuck messages onto the wrappers of some of the sweets. |

Re: Little Things
I've just made up a big crossword and sent it to him. All the clues are to do with our life since we met. Some he will really have to think hard about to get the answer..... Also thought I would mention that I have made up two lists that I have been sending out to the girls on the ebluey chat board. One is ideas to show your loved one you care when they are away. The other is ideas to keep you busy when you feel like you are going insane. Some of the ideas are things I have personally done or thought of and others are ideas from other ladies. If anyone wants copies just email me. |

Re: Little Things
Hi Teresa Would be more than happy to put the lists on here but they are rather long and would take up a lot of space! |

Re: Little Things
Well i dont think i have done anything amazing. My BF would not do croswords or anything like that... I send him an e bluey a day and loads of parcels with all of his favourite stuff! I have sent him some of my underwear, he will probably be wearing it though! The thing that made him smile the most was when i sent hima copy of the Autotrader, made his day!!! The small things LOL

Re: Little Things
Teresa I have emailed the lists to you so that you can see whether it's worth putting them on the thread or not, due to their length.
