It’s December chums!

The countdown is officially on and there are halls to be decked, wine to be mulled and pies to be minced (shurely shome mishtake?) Furthermore, there are presents to be bought! In truth, the sheer choice can make finding the best Christmas gifts for men somewhat overwhelming. Plus, it’s simply impossible to park in town! What say you stay cosy and warm in the comfort of your own parlour, crank up your gramophone for the all time greatest Christmas playlist and thank the HQ elves for doing all the hard work for you? Aren’t they wonderful?!

Fawcett’s fabulous gift guide for men suits all budgets, with a little luxury for everyone. Presents made to be cherished beyond the big day are guaranteed to please even the most Grinch-hearted chap. From traditionalists to trend-setters, the Captain takes care of all your favourite fellows. Let the festivities commence!
