So Christmas will be here soon, yet there are so many choices out there and choosing what to buy your friends and family can be hard.  Here is my Christmas Gift Guide for 2017 with the added bonus that you, my lovely readers can win all these items below.

For you

Now gin is the new 'in' drink this year and what better than a personalised gin cocktail set to make all those delicious concoctions. Included in this gift set is your own personalised gin bottle, as well as a stylish metal shaker, cocktail parasols, 150 cocktail recipe book, drinks measure and much more.

With a wide range of gifts from toys and gadgets to jewellery and experiences it's a site that has millions of happy customers each year. I love their gadget section which has a range of cool toys including Virtual Reality glasses, the world's smallest RC helicopter and a state of the art Dr Who sonic screwdriver.

For your husband or wife



What do you get the man who has everything? A chance to fly a commercial jet that's what! Well, strictly it's a flight simulator but you can get the idea. Your instructor will brief you on the basic controls, then you have a chance to go through two take off and two landings. No experience is needed and you can choose from thousands of airports from around the world, and no one will shout at you if you look out of the window at the landmarks all around.

Flight Experience London is the world leader in flight simulation entertainment. Operating FAA approved Boeing 737-800 simulators, a flying experience like this is something you don't do every day and is a truly original experience for both men and women of all ages.

 For your parents

If your brother works in a smart environment, why not buy him a pair of stylish but clever cufflinks? Can cufflinks be clever you may ask, well if they spin they can be! These spinning steel cufflinks are meant to be fiddled with and are made using stainless steel 626 bearings that are attached to silver plated cufflinks. The centres of the bearings are filled with a coloured resin and come in yellow, red, blue, orange, black, green, purple, white, turquoise, gold, silver and bronze, I prefer the black ones myself.

Off The Cuff is an Etsy shop started by Pete Lever. Making and selling items on Etsy has provided him with a creative outlet as well as bringing Pete's unusual designs to a legion of fans. As well as spinning cufflinks which have been funded by a Kickstarted campaign he also makes and sells watch movement cufflinks, he makes cufflinks from motor agate, also known as Fordite, from the Chevrolet plant in Detroit
