Any ideas for something gadgety to get my dad?

[lucysmam]

I'm a bit stumped. He generally buys himself what he wants, when he wants it. So I always struggle to find something

I thought maybe one of those ufo's that you control with your hands. But haven't got any further than that!

Alexa?

Ooh, hadn't thought of Alexa. Does it matter that he has an iPhone? Probably not...will have a google and see

Ooh yes, an Alexa Dot, i've got my Dad one of those - he loves a gadget / setting it up. I'm sure it'll only get used to check the weather or put on the radio but he'll think it's great I reckon!

I was going to say google home or Alexa too.

Readly subscription. U can have app on up to 5 devices.
It’s every magazine, plus 12 months of back issues, that you can think of. It’s like walking into WHSmiths and reading everything on the magazine stand.

That might be good Galaxy, I'll look it up while I wait in for the plumber in the morning, thanks

Another recommendation for Readly. My dad's got a subscription to it and he thinks it's excellent.My mum loves it because it means there is no longer a permanent heap of magazines on the coffee tablex

Amazon have mini drones around the £30 mark this year! I also bought my dad a build your own combustion engine once, kept him quiet for days
