At this time of year it can be nigh on impossible to decide what’s best in terms of a Christmas gift for loved ones. Some of us struggle with this problem every year. It can be extremely difficult for those who seemingly have everything, or have no discernable hobbies to speak of. What to buy can turn the run up to Christmas into a nightmare.

Something unusual

Personally, I like something unusual as it’s usually an indication that someone has made an effort to find something different. You can imagine someone who’s trawled the shops and searched through trinkets and gift shops. If you like antique items then how special is it, if someone has gone the extra mile to discover that rare find?
