Joint gift for couple in their 60’s?

Looking for a gift for my dad and his partner. They are loaded so tend to buy everything they need and want. They also get a lot of food gifts as they have lots of friends that gift them food and wine. Any ideas? I have done cinema tickets before but they rarely go anywhere together. Haven’t got a huge budget (£20 ish).

Do they have a garden... ? Birdfeeder was one of my favourite gifts, or one of those tubs prefilled with bulbs.

They have a huge garden but I think they already have bird feeders. I was looking at garden lights earlier but I, not sure what they already have but something for the garden is a good idea.

Board game? Books? Luxury toiletries? Afternoon Tea voucher? Voucher for a Spa treatment? Bluetooth speaker for the shower? Panto tickets? Gin Distillery or Winery visit? Cocktail making class?

I'm in my sixties and have a huge garden! I use one of these

Love it so much I bought one to use at the other end of the garden instead of having to carry it about. You could buy a bulb planter and some seasonal bulbs to go with it, all well within your budget.

Mexican Train, its an easy but very fun dominos game you can play just the two of you or with more friends my dh and I were gifted it last year we thought wtf but have played it loads.

Lovemusic33 · 23/11/2019 16:33

Oh, lots of great ideas. I might go for the afternoon tea idea as there are a few offers on groupon. They rarely go anywhere together, I know his partner will use it even if he doesn’t (she often goes out with friends or her dd).

Don't do a Groupon without checking the terms I've got 3 I haven't used as they were too far away /too limited times/crap hotels
