Hi all,

We were not doing adult presents now suddenly we are again and I've got nothing substantial for my dad an no ideas.

He is mid 60s, no hobbies because he's a workaholic. He has plenty of money so just buys stuff he wants when he sees it.
Mum has already got him nice whisky.
Sister has got him a case of craft ale and some tooth breaking toffee.
Can't buy him clothes as he refuses to wear anything he didn't buy himself.
He has asked us not to get an "experience" gift.
Last year we got him a bee hotel.
Birthday he got a planted up pot decorated with grandkids handprints.

I am totally all out of ideas and really nees some inspiration, can anyone help?
Or tell me what you've all got for your 60ish dads?

What do you class as 'experience' type presents? Would tickets to a sporting event or something fall into that category. Another successful present for my dad was some tickets to sporting event (cricket /football /rugby). Then either me or my brother would go with him, although realise that's not always easy to arrange.

A Cornerstone personalised razor, blades, Crabtree and Evelyn shaving soap bar and matching cologne. Plus some festive beer.

We don't spend much on each other at Xmas but I got him a magazine subscription, a liquorice selection pack and thinking of getting him a keyring charger like one of these Charger. Dad's are so difficult to buy for!

I'm got the Janet & John stories read by Terry Wogan. They are not available in CD format anymore but they have been made available to download until 23rd Dec. I just need to burn to cd and print out the track listing.
