    Does anyone have any good ideas for what to get my boyfriend's father for his birthday? He's fifty-something, my budget is around 20 euro. He doesn't appear to really have any hobbies, isn't into music and I don't think he'd be interested in clothes or a bottle of whiskey/alcohol etc.

    Expensive socks.

    Very few people buy these for themselves but they're nice to get.

    You should get a nice 3 pack of Gant / Hilfiger / Ralph Lauren socks for around €20.
