Late 60s
Keen angler but I've bought him every single fishing/angling trinket/accessory/mug/glass/flask etc etc and his 'mancave' is full of such,& I couldn't afford any 'actual' angling stuff
Isn't interested in food or cooking (well he is but is always on a diet and wouldnt appreciate a sabotage!
Ditto alcohol.
Likes nature and outdoors
Likes his car. Likes tv but very particular about what he watches. Likes university challenge!
I've got everyone else more or less sorted..
Just him. Stumped! Hopefully thread may help others too. :)

I got my Dad some signed Bear Grylls books last year, which he really liked.

Maybe something Countryfile-ish? Bird nest-cam?

If he likes University Challenge, he may like the GCHQ puzzle book.

Bird feeder
Nest box
Thermals for when he’s fishing

Thank you all of you! Bird nest stuff is a particularly fab idea but I like the others a lot too, and need to get him more than just one thing I think :)

Utility gilet. All the pockets.
Can you get something like an electric golf trolley but for fishing?

A lovely delivery of fresh fish/seafood? www.ethicalshellfishcompany.co.uk/product/creel-caught-scottish-lobster/

What about a nice bird feeder and fat balls/seeds and a hellebore plant (lots available just now) that would go nice with a bird box. Along the same lines a windchime for the garden or a wee solar light ornament.

Last year my sister got my dad and stepmum a nest box with a wireless camera so you could watch what was going on inside. I thought that was a pretty inspired present.

I’ve bought my dad a night vision wildlife camera for his back garden.
