Gift for old couple....

[The Artist]

I need to get a gift for an old couple who live on a boat. I owe them big time for various things, not financially, just being helpful. They don't drink or smoke and I need to get them something. Any ideas for a good thank you gift?

[Rogerborg]

Do they have any hobbies other than boating?

Rather than taking up their very limited storage space with Stuff, would they accept a financial contribution to their next debarnacling, or having their cannons re-brassed?

Take a decent photo of the boat, use one of they programs to make it look like an oldy-worldy photo or painting/drawing. Get it framed for them to hang inside the boat.

Some sort of water safe paint stripper. Old people worry unnecessarily about paint needing redoing on the boat roof.

A big tin of biscuits. You can't go wrong with that.
Just make sure it's a tin so it can double up for keeping knitting stuff in it after the biscuits are gone.



Or am I stereotyping.....

Pay for their next pump out, and do it for them.

I guess some fancy biscuits would be nice for them. The man is really handy with tools and stuff so I am sure his roof is just fine.

Regarding pump out, I think they are the hardcore narrowboaters who use a cassette type toilet.

How about a photoshoot with a local photographer? Should cost less than £50 with a print..won't take space up on the boat and should be a bit of fun

Something useful for the boat?

[Scottishgauch...]

Would your budget stretch to a couple of woolly jumpers? They'd come in handy during the winter.

[Robby]

The only gift they'll ever need. A pair of one-way tickets to Switzerland.

As most there seemed to be pretty hippyish - something sustainable, eco, spiritual or similar. (Try a charity shop - extra marks if you leave the label on probably ).

[Ariel Badger]

Decent binoculars and an RSPB membership, trust me I am old.
