    My uncle is doing the videography at our wedding, I would like to buy him a gift to say thank you, something in the range of about £40. Problem is he is super fussy. He doesn't wear things like cuff links or ties (he already has hundreds which he doesn't wear), he doesn't drink, he is in his 60's and isn't really into things like picture frames or anything too decorative.... He likes walking and photography (I had thought about a digital photo frame but he is old school and still uses a camera with a film!!) He never spends the gift vouchers I've bought him in the past, just hoards them for if and when he might 'need' something. He doesn't actually 'need' anything! I just want to get him something nice and thoughtful. Any ideas?!?!!!

    Erm what sort of walking does he do?
    Can you maybe get him a compass and engrave it for when he goes walking??
    Or maybe a case or something for his camera?

    Failing that what about some sort of plaque trophy saying thank you that he can hang on the wall/put on the mantle?

    I love the camera lens cups, will work really well if hes a Nikon or Canon user!
    I bought my h2b an antique pocket compass and had it engraved for his engagement present (i felt he deserved a present too after getting me my beautiful ring!) x
