Last minute man present help please.

[belindarose]

My dad, who I rarely see, has announced he's visiting this week. Normally we don't see him till several weeks after Christmas so I don't feel I need to give a present. This time I do. He'll bring something for DD and usually gives me a voucher.

What on earth can I get him? Last year it was a photo frame with dd pics in. He doesn't drink, is supposed to be dieting, doesn't read, has just taken up golf but no idea what he's into otherwise.

I have half a morning on Tuesday before he comes - only available shopping time. thanks

how much do you want to spend?

what about a scarf?

Forgot to say - about a tenner. Yes a scarf might be good. I could get one from the garden centre I pass by. Or gloves for dog walking?

Voucher for a golf lesson

Lovely warm gloves that golfers wear this time of year.

Waterproof

Can you tell (from my name) that I'm a golfer?

Gloves would be nice, I think, it's freezing out there & I'd appreciate them even though I don't have a dog to walk!

Thanks all. I'll seek out some gloves. I always lose mine so appreciate them as gifts.

They had golf stuff in Aldi yesterday.

Can't get to an aldi, I'm afraid. Thanks.

Something to wear? Tie? Cashmere socks, nice handkies...

I do think grandparents enjoy photos, so an update of those in new frames. I've also seen a tray, and you can slip the photos into the base. I know you can get them online:

Hope that helps..

Good Luck!

Oops... Took a break to have lunch, then came back to post this. Just discovered that your budget is a tenner... blows out the tray, then.

Photo on a mug (Boots)?

Don't think he's so keen on photos, but I might print him out some recent ones to go in last year's frame.

all purpose golf tool £9.

Calvin Klein golf tube gift set £10.

golfer's accessory kit also £10.

Have just bought DP some 'heat holder' socks £6, they sell them in matalan, sports direct and my local (Dobbies) garden centre, so I imagine they are readily available. DP works outside and they went down well
