Shopping for your fiancé in London
In London, gift shoppers head to Covent Garden, Marylebone High Street, Liberty and, on Sundays, the Columbia Road Flower Market.
The Tube and buses make a lunch-break shopping trip easy, and same-day delivery covers the centre, so a late gift is still possible.
Buying for your fiancé
Engaged couples are busy with plans, so a gift that gives him a break is welcome. A quiet evening, a keepsake or a surprise can mean more than a large item.
Add a note about what you are looking forward to.
If you are shopping at the last minute
Flowers, spa vouchers and a personalized game can be arranged online the same day. An oin game is usually emailed within an hour of payment. Pair one with a handwritten note about the year ahead.
Keep it light. After the holidays a small, thoughtful gift is more welcome than a large one.
A gift that does not depend on London
Shops in London cannot sell this one: a pixel game with him as the hero, two letters from you and a quiz about your story. It is emailed, usually within an hour. The final level is set in Almaty today, with New York and Tokyo coming soon.
