1. For the pint loving papa
Is your Dad prone to a few pints down the pub? Or simply enjoys a few cans at home in front of the football/rugby/boxing? This quirky Kilner beer keg will be a great addition to his man cave! It’ll make him feel like he’s bought the pub to his home, and with the trend for home bars going nowhere fast, this could be the thing he needs to get started on his own stylish space.

2. For the security conscious dad
Is your Dad always reminding you to check your locks? Does he keep an eye on the local Facebook crime page in both your area and his own? A new security camera could be just the gift to help scratch his security itch! Swann’s latest security camera is equipped with six months of battery life, full HD video, 2-way talk to greet guests or warn off intruders, as well as heat and motion-sensing technology. If you combine the gift with the Swann Outdoor solar panel, Dad will never need to worry about charging up the camera.
While it’s a bit on the pricey side, it’s the perfect gift if you’re clubbing together with your siblings or want to spend a bit more for Father’s Day this year.

This 18V random orbit sander is handheld and ideal for fine finishing, paint removal and other light to medium sanding tasks.

Showcasing 92 English football grounds, your Dad can scratch off the ones he’s visited and then plan his trips to the ones he’s not yet made it to. It’s perfect wall fodder for his man cave and is bound to inspire some trips away!
