Nc for this so as not to spoil surprises.

I have 2 people to buy milestone birthday gifts for.

Both are pensioners and don't get out much - in one case not at all - and aren't in the greatest health.

For the lady I am thinking a personalised jewellery box, probably vintage style, but I'm overwhelmed by the choice available (needs to be ordered online and delivered to their not my address) but want to ensure decent quality, not too small but I'm also have a budget. I'm also very nervous about using companies I've never even heard of.

The man I've absolutely no clue what to get him as there's very little he's now able to do or enjoy because of ill health.

Alcohol & sweets for medical reasons and jewellery & books are out for both.

Hoping you bright sparks of mn will be able to come up with an idea or 2 and recommendations for me? I'd be so grateful

A cheese hamper.
Tea pot, and selection of teas.
Bird bath, or bird table.

In the case of the gentleman, what is your relationship to him?

Thanks for responses. Man is my father, he can't drink hot drinks and not a cheese fan, audiobooks no good (both very deaf)
