I'm into my gardening, spend a lot of time on my borders but one of the things that is always mentioned are my 'sculptures', I have a few from Etsy and a really nice corten bowl. The sort of thing that gives interest in winter but doesn't obscure light in the summer. Smile

I have a similar aged father who is terrible, he’d hate everything in this thread! I dream of the day I hit gold and get him something he’d actually want or need or like. He’s not really -into- anything, that’s the problem. I’ll keep watching the thread and any others that appear with fingers crossed!

Thanks everyone. He lives with a decent cook so anything that’s cooking type stuff wouldn’t be used by him, he’s got really good garden tools, already bought him niwaki stuff which he appreciated Smile
