Yes, nanpug it has taken many years of 'training' DH. He used to buy me an LP he wanted and take me to shows he wanted to see for my birthday but after years of subtle work he now thinks of what I would like to do (and he does too) 
I eventually got DH trained too and he bought me tickets for a Country and Western show at the O2, with a hotel stay and lunch on the Thames planned - really good idea if it wasn't for the fact that DD3 is due to give birth that weekend and we are having DGS2 and the dog while she is in hospital. I know she probably won't have the baby that weekend but you can be sure that, if we went, she would.
He also got tickets for us to see Dolly Parton and thoroughly enjoyed himself.
If any of you can hear me singing it will be to Meatloaf!
