When it comes to buying gifts for people most holidays and occasions make it pretty easy to know what to get. With Christmas you have a lot of help from shops and advertisers telling you all the bright, shiny new things to buy. Most people already have a fair idea of what they want for their birthdays and Easter, of course, is all about the chocolate! But what about buying gifts for people in their prime? For example who knows what to get as a retirement gift? After all it is not an occasion that comes around annually or often enough to know what sort of things you should get. Well fear not as I have managed to compile a list of what I believe to be perfect gifts for people who are in their prime!!

If the person you are buying for enjoys spending time at home relaxing (perhaps enjoying their recent free time thanks to a retirement?) then why not get them something special to do with their hobbies? If the person you are buying for is very into football how about getting them a personalised football book? You can have the front embossed with their name which will make it all the more special and the inside contains football ...
... memorabilia and facts about their favourite team from old headlines and newspaper cuttings to photos and match reports (including boardroom dramas!)

If you want to get them something special that they can keep for a long time there are lots of items that you can have engraved or personalised. For example an engraved half pint pewter tankard is not only something they can keep but it will certainly come in useful!! Champagne or Whisky is a good present choice for any occasion and it can be made even more special by having your very own label on the bottle. You can choose from many different types and have whatever you want written on it. Another lovely item to get engraved is a carriage clock or even a watch (this again is another item that will get a lot of use).

A personalised calendar is a very original gifts idea and as it is used all year round, a constant reminder of yourself! If you want to go for a slightly more light hearted gift (but at the same time very useful) why not get them the brilliant '101 things to do in a shed'. This is a great gift idea as it contains so many different things to keep yourself occupied and busy such as gardening tips, DIY tips, Model making, or fun projects in general. This present will certainly get a lot of use (even if they don't admit it right away!)

Many people who have a lot of free time on their hands find themselves wanting to use that time to find out more about their family history. This can be done with a 'Family History Pack' this pack includes all the necessary information and tools in order to trace your family tree. This is the perfect gift for keeping yourself busy and finding out some fascinating information about your family.

Gardening tools are always a lovely idea as it is a useful item but at the same time something to help enjoy your favourite hobbies. You can buy them in sets or individually and you can even have them personalised to make them individual and special!

If the person you are buying a gift for enjoys cooking why not get them a good cook book or even a cooking journal so that they can come up with their own unique ideas and jot them down as they go along. It could even end up being something that is passed down through generations?
