If you like to play with gadgets then take the Ipod IF its the "touch" version. ??????

If not take the vouchers.

For my 20 years i took argos vouchers and bought a speed camera warning thingy for the car which has saved me on more than one occasion.

Well done on 40 years

[smelly_cat_lady]

well done on surviving 40 years as there doesn't seem to be an option for hip/knee replacement surgery why not opt for the Barnados charity donation?

Congrats on reaching 40years
Whats the value of the vouchers? Think I would opt for those because then you can buy what YOU want.

[zuvinrat]

Well done mate forty years is a fantastic achievement you should be really proud and hold your head up high andlook forward to your retirement

[savo]

Congratulations on reaching the 40 year milestone with hopefully your health and sanity intact.

Dunno what model Phillips hi-fi they are offering, but bought one recently for around 180 squid from Argos, and been well pleased with it.

( came with a free DVD of Schteeve McClaren trying to speak in a Dutch accent )
