My male neighbour is 90 soon and I'd like to give him a small gift around £20-£30. I know his wife's interests, but not his. An ideas?

Do they ever go out to the cinema or a certain restaurant/pub chain for meals? A voucher or garden centre voucher maybe?
The people I’ve had in my life that reached that age & beyond don’t really want stuff, they’ve accumulated so much stuff they don’t want to add to it.
Does he drink, maybe a good bottle of something?

I was recently invited to 90th birthday party and bought a Ringtons hamper online - teabags, coffee and 2 lots of biscuits

A restaurant voucher maybe? Or. if they have a favorite place/a place they like, you can get a delivery from there.
