have you bought a present for jim ’ s birthday yet ?   no , I haven ’ t . I can ’ t think of anything to get him .   I ’ m having the same problem . I want to get something really special . Jim always seem to know exactly what to get people as gifts .   I know . He bought me that beautiful sweater for my birthday . It was exactly what I wanted . And it fit me perfectly !   he bought me an iron .   that doesn ’ t sound like a great present .   maybe not , but my iron was getting old . In fact , it stopped working the week after jim bought me the new one . It ’ s as if he knew that my old iron would soon stop working !   let ’ s think . He loves football , doesn ’ t he ? I saw signed photographs of famous footballers in a shop near hear . Let ’ s go and have a look . You know which team he supports , don ’ t you ?   yes , I do . Let ’ s go . We should be able to find something suitable . We should get him something old ... something historic .   it ’ ll be an expensive present , but we can share the cost .   I ’ ll be happy to get him something special , even if it coasts a little extra .
