    For me - a card, chocolate orange and gift tokens. It's always nice to have a 'surprise', but to be safe tokens are always a good bet.

    You get some dads the same as you these days, Nik mate!!

    I bet they'd love a new game for the PS2 or something, not sure your dad would appreciate Pro Evo 5 though.

    Good gifts for a dad (in and about £20)

    In no particular order</p>



    1) Sheepskin gloves</p>

    2) Ashes DVD / video</p>

    3) Electric toothbrush (good offers at Boots and Argos at the mo)</p>

    4) Sweatshirt / jumper / fleece (plain, no brand name, highly practical)</p>

    5) Electric screwdriver</p>

    6) Socks and pants (honest us dads love 'em)</p>

    7) CD box set of 70's band (need to be careful here) there are some pretty good box sets on offer at HMV at the mo', dads like complete sets of stuff.</p>



    I'm a dad and would be happy with any of these things.</p>
