It’s December chums!

The countdown is officially on. There are halls to be decked, wine to be mulled, brandy to be buttered, pies to be minced and eggs to be nogged. (Eh? Shurely shome mishtake!?) One thing is certain…there are presents to be bought! Now us chaps can be awkward blighters, indeed, it’s dashed hard to find the perfect gifts for men. Furthermore the sheer choice can be overwhelming. Plus, it’s simply impossible to park in town! I say, why don’t you stay cosy in the comfort of your own parlour, crank up some festive tunes and let Captain Fawcett do all the hard work for you? Fawcett’s fabulous gift guide for men suits all budgets, with a little luxury for everyone. Let the festivities commence!
