LovexxLife

So,
Im a bit stuck this year on what to get my dad for Christmas. He's in his 60s. He likes fishing, westerns and German Shepard's, caravaning, crime programmes like csi etc.. and a bit of history.

He has loads of westerns, has all the fishing gear and caravan stuff, has a German Shepard, the last few years I got him csi and geogre and Mildred boxsets which most of them have the cover still on. Oh and he Loves winegums! So going to get him a box of them anyways!

Give him a sailing experience or send to the Boyne Valley tour. You say that your dad loves history so he will have a chance to follow the footsteps of Irelands High Kings through the "Royal County" and see the Hill Of Tara.

What about a box set of Luther - new BBC crime drama, my hubby is watching it at the moment and said it's brilliant, like a dark Sherlock Holmes.

Have you ever seen the Benjamin Black books by John Banville, Irish crime fiction, supposed to be fantastic.
