This is a gift, rather, for the men. The thing is optional, but aesthetic. As a bow tie. As elegant cigarette holder. Easy to genius device, invented by the Danes.

I recommend this book to little thing Amazon , since similar devices in Russia are unreasonably expensive.

And even if its intended purpose it is unlikely to be used, the gift is still useful. Instead of “inheritance powder” in it, you can store the tablet or alkozeltsera crib with something that is constantly forgotten.
