Graduation present

[Ouroboros]

my nephew is graduating going out for a meal, would like to get something around 20 quid.

Works out and drinks, starts a job in September, any ideas?

Trying to work out what is so funny.

OP if he likes the gym, is there a brand of clothes that he likes for the gym? Maybe a gift card for that store/website.

He is going to earn more than me, his parents are millionaires, it was more the thought of a present, I guess on PH money talks lol.

I would just give him the cash. Cash is 100% efficient.

That is my usual go to offer. He likes gin might get a bottle of that.

Gymshark gift card if they do them. That's the in fashion gym clothing brand currently

Failing that see if My Protein do them.

Or just go with Amazon.

Stretch budget very slightly and get a ‘low budget but nice’ pen? Cross pens are nice, and available from (relatively) low budgets (think £25 upwards).

I actually liked this suggestion. These are really useful and he’d remember his uncle OP each time he used it.

[Whats on Second]

on a tangential tangent,

graduating from uni or [ another effing fking US import ] just attending all the lessons in high school ?

Estate management, he has got a job for one of the biggest UK home builders so seems to have worked out for him. It is university graduation, just thought I would get him something really.

He owns a golf GTD which he will be using for longish commute to new job.

I think GranpaB was just jovially suggesting that if you want to get him something for £20, just give him £20 i.e. cash. Not a query on the amount.
