Shipwrecked? How about a message in a bottle?

27 October 2008

Shipwrecks are terrible things? Aside from the physical cost of a ship sinking into the depths of the ocean, there is also the human cost. Thankfully, it is at least possible for individuals to escape from the vessel as it moves down amongst the icy depths, but lives are all-to-often lost.

But what causes shipwrecks to occur? In addition to things such as bad weather, ship instability, or poor construction, a ship can find itself wrecked as a result of warfare, deliberate intent on the part of crew members, or even navigation errors.

Taking all of this into account, shipwrecks of a more abstract kind can also occur when trying to select one of many options in the world of Gifts for Her. Indeed, when it comes to Christmas Gifts for Her, it's important to convey the right message with each and every possible option. After all, if you're not actively contemplating marriage, it's probably not a good idea to suggest Gifts for her that give off clear overtones of matrimony. Indeed, the same could be said for children; so, if fatherhood is not something you're actively considering, it's probably a good idea to avoid gifts that create the impression that you are.

However, there are abstract notions of shipwrecks that could positively inspire anyone currently in the process of looking for Gifts for Her, no matter what the age. Take, for example the MiniQuarium; this amazing water-themed gift features two not-so-cute looking sharks in search of their next snack. Also sporting a shipwreck, the MiniQuarium makes a fantastic gift, whether you're looking for a night-light for someone younger, or even a lamp for someone a little more grown-up.

And then, of course, there is the ubiquitous Create Your Own Boat in a Bottle Kit. Perfect for sailors both young and old, the kit is one of the best Gifts for Her around, irrespective of whether or not she's a fan of taking her own feet away from dry land. Presented in its own nautical vintage gift box, the Create Your Own Boat in a Bottle kit gives you everything you need to create one of the most difficult-to-fathom gifts in existence – after all, exactly how does something so big get through the neck of a bottle?

However, despite the improbability of the situation, placing a ship inside a bottle isn't as difficult as it sounds. In most cases the ship is created outside of the bottle and, once pushed inside, the masts are pushed up to their correct position. However, some ships – because of their width – have to be assembled once inside the bottle using special tools. However, these types of Gifts for Her and him can include many other types of objects, not just ships; matchboxes, tennis balls, padlocks and even pairs of scissors can also be used, and can make equally amazing gifts for her.

But what if a shipwreck is a metaphor to describe the need for calm, open waters? In that case, anyone looking for the ultimate in Gifts for Her should seriously consider opting for something that inspires relaxation. For example, a 30-minute Pamper Treat could be the ultimate in Gifts for Her, if the lady in question is in need of a little rest and recuperation. With the ability to enjoy any one of a number of different treatments - ranging from an express facial, to a massage for tired neck and shoulder muscles – the 30-minute Pamper Treat really could be the ultimate in Gifts for Her; especially as there is also the option for her and a friend to make the most of a complimentary health and fitness club day pass.

Even though facilities do tend to vary from venue to venue, they generally include a sauna, steam room, gym and swimming pool. And, as she'll just have finished enjoying her 30-minute Pamper Treat, there's no risk of her looking like a shipwreck in the water.
