60th Birthday Ideas Please?

It's my old man's 60th birthday in 6 weeks - completely stuck for ideas for a present for him.

Obviously its a milestone birthday so needs to be memorable!
Oh and up to £100.
Here are somethings about my Dad:

1) Likes gadgets
2) but takes a while to get to work them out
3) Twitcher
4) Fisherman
5) Gardener
6) fan of Queen and Troggs and The Who
7) likes sci fi (doctor who, star trek)
8) and most movies

Help!!



I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which i'm dying are the best i've ever had.

1) Likes gadgets - Avoid, unless there is something he really wants; limited lifespan
2) but takes a while to get to work them out
3) Twitcher - Decent binoculars, telephoto lens, 'coffee table' bird books.
4) Fisherman - 'Quality' rod, reel, bag, seat, shelter ???
5) Gardener - Nice set of gnomes. (Sorry I don't mean that, just hate gardening, and gnomes)
6) fan of Queen and Troggs and The Who
7) likes sci fi (doctor who, star trek)
Cool and most movies

I think the idea of nice day out, something he'll remember is a good one. Before my grandparents died, my parents stopped buying them physical birthday presents, treated them to a day out, payed for lunch etc, i think they liked that more as they got to see places they never would have otherwise.
