Suggestions Please

Can anyone suggest a Christmas present for my friends husband please,in his mid 70's,around £5. I have bought him a book on railways, [ his hobby ] but he has been good to me when I stay with them at their home and Id like to get something else as well. He ,and my friend ,both smoke but roll their own, I usually buy tobacco but this they share and I would like to get something different this year. I dont know what shower things etc. he uses ,but my friend is often buying different 'smelly goods' that they both use ,so that would not be personal,My friend just says get him tobacco

Re: Suggestions Please

Give him something that you know he likes rather than something that you think he would like because the odds are that he won't like it. Tobacco would be best perhaps some small cigars ?

Great for women to put in their handbags but so good for a seventy plus man.

Men always appreciate aftershave and shaving cream and the deodorant spray that come in boxed sets, but maybe he might have a beard.
