    Default Secret santa - help please?

    Hello,

    I hope it's OK to ask for help with this as my Father in Law used to serve on Shell Tankers in the Merchant Navy and I would like to buy him something related to this for Christmas and am looking for ideas. The budget is around £50 and wondered if anyone had any good ideas?

    Thanks for any help!

    Hi Danny, you could try Snowbow for a DVD with Shell Tankers.

    I have not seen it myself but some of the site members may have and confirm it contains Shell Tankers.

    Now that is a good idea Bill , and although like you am not sure as to if it does contain Shell Tankers, (Would think it should) i myself have bought quite a few Videos from there , and all are excellent! So yes hopefully there may be someone here who has a copy of a Shell Tanker one that can confirm??

    You could buy him some of 'Castles on the Sea' and then he can see how the other half did it.

    If he doesn't have any photographs of the ships he served on maybe a couple of those framed. Lots of stores where you can buy reasonably priced ready frames, might even be enough left for a bottle of Rum
    Thanks to everyone for the help!
