My dad is literally that hardest man on EARTH to buy for!

[sweetheart]

PLEASE tell me what I can get him for Christmas?

He is nearly 70 and has health issues so doesn't really leave the house. He is overweight and on a strict diet so can't eat nice things and can't drink alcohol with the tablets he takes.

He basically sit's in a chair all day every day, he pop's to the shop in the morning for a paper and that's about it.

He likes football and supports Chelsea but as you can imagine he's got everything football related already.

He doesn't read - apart from reading the paper wach day or have any other hobbies.

I can't really buy him clothes as he's very overweight and my mum buys his stuff from a special catalogue.

He does shower daily but is old school and doesn't really understand the need for posh smellies.

HELP!!!!

Oh yes and budget is £30

He probably doesn't have this. But, then again, would he want it?

It is £30 though...

New slippers?
A weather station ? My dad is also super hard to buy for, I've resorted to one of these before! He does like it!

No Arbitary he doesn't have that but you're right I'm not sure he'd want it and I know my mum would deffo not want that cluttering up her house

hmmm maybe slippers, that weather thing has just reminded me he feeds the birds in the garden

He feeds the birds??? There is present GOLD to be mined there. New feeders, new feeds...

The one that you spike an apple on. The one that is squirrel proof. The one that is REALLY squirrel proof. can you guess what my dad gets from me?

What about pay for his newspapers

On amazon you can get a little night vision camera to be installed in a bird box and it only needs one lead to the tv

How about personalised book of newspapers from the year he was born? We got one for DH's 60 and he loved it. We got ours here:www.gonedigging.co.uk/newspaper-gifts/special-date-newspaper-books/year-edition-newspaper-book/?source=adwords&kw=%2Bnewspaper%20%2Byear%20%2Bbook&gclid=CILKysaugbQCFW3MtAodi0wAvw

Nice scarf/hat/gloves for his walk to the shop?
Something for the garden (posh plant or a terracotta planter)?
Digital photo frame?
DVD Box Set? My Dad is getting Open All Hours, the old Ronnie Barker classic.

a friend brought the bird box with camera.. and would like to get that for my dad.. but was wondering were the lead goes.. my parents garden is rather big and the tv is at front of house.. would the wire trail all way through or is there a wireless one ? anyone know?
sorry to hijack! my dad is also soo hard to buy for and it's his birthday before Xmas to :(
