Gift ideas for boy?

[nycmermaid]

I am leaving for London in 4 days and I still don't have a real Christmas present for Nathan. I was mulling over the idea of some sort of guy-friendly fingerless armwarmer or mitten, I even bought yarn I considered "guy-friendly," but then I decided that would be a whole lot of work for something I'm not even sure he'd wear. If I'm going to knit him something, I need to get started now. Or I could go out and buy something. It's not about money, but I don't want to spend a lot. He doesn't have many clothes, so I could just get him a nice jumper (yes, jumper) or shirt or something. He usually gets me several cute little things, like a figurine, a picture frame, a dish, a bag, or jewelry. Is there any equivalent of that for guys? I wish the Twin Peaks gold box edition DVDs came in Region 2 because if they did I'd get him that. He loves everything by David Lynch, as well as the Coen Brothers. I don't want to guess at a CD he might like. And I won't really have time to buy something for him in London before we meet up.

So what do you think about the armwarmer idea? I can't believe how bad I've been with procrastinating about this...I guess I hoped the perfect present would just present itself!
