I'll swap DH's with you Kate. Mine cooks a mean smashed burger and eggy bread - not together.

My DH will be 80 in March. He loves gifts of cheeses, pickles, unusual crackers, any food items. He is a good cook. I have bought him truffle oils, posh olive oil and stuff like that in the past, that he wouldn't buy himself.

Lego!

I’ve just given some Stars wars to a 79 year old.

He’s having such a good time😂

Agree my DH had some for his last birthday from our DD.. He loved it.

How about a collage of names of people who he shares his birthday with or memorable events in history on the same date……..it could keep him occupied for some time, rather a ‘ I never knew that ‘ scenario.

DH is 80 in a month or so. I have his main present sorted but does any one have any ideas for lovely, or fun, extras please.
