Family gifts

I'm sorting my gift list and I need ideas for the following family members. I'll add on age and budget. I'm pretty much sorted with the majority but these few have got me stumped.

Dad. 65. £50ish. Interested in football and garden accessories like lighting and feeding the birds. Although he has got a lot of bird feeders. No experience days as he still works all week and in his words '' weekends are made for doing nothing.''

Mil. 55. £50ish. Expensive brands would be wasted as she's more of a quantity over quality person. Poor health so doesn't get out much.

Uncle. 75. £10. Grumpy. Likes films but wouldn't know where to start with what he's got. Maybe something foodie?

Cousin. 40. £10. Like uncle above, always moaning about something or other. Usually a bath set but would love to find something different this year.

Throw any ideas at me. Hoping to get my list done so I can get everything soon. Star

Would you dad appreciate binoculars for watching the birds he feeds? Or a nest box?

MIL any hobby’s? Jigsaws/ books? Pamper day?

Are vouchers out? Amazon or iTunes for uncle so he can pick a film?

Hamper for cousin?

My Uncle sounds a bit like yours, bit older, I'm thinking a big tub of sweets he can dip into.

What about one of those little cameras that go in nest boxes for your dad?

I don't know how much they are but that could be nice if he gets some babies in one of the boxes?
