oh I do like to be beside the seaside
My son turns 21 next month and I'm stuck for what to get him.

I bought him a watch for his 18th, so don't want to get him another.

He's not into jewellery so chains, rings etc are out and not that bothered about tech stuff and don't want to just give him money.

The only thing I've thought of is getting him a Scalextric set :D but that's not really something to keep and remember.

Help!!!!

So what does he like/do?

EDIT: Oh, no, forget what I said, do that ^^
 
Depends how rich you are

£100s - New phone/Tablet/Hooker(s)
<£100 - Gadget/PC Hardware/Hooker
<£50 - Video game/Clothes/Trainers/Hooker
<£20 - Beer/Money/Hooker
 
Buy him a musical instrument, he'll keep it for life (most likely) and learn something in the process. But maybe not your usual kind of instrument like guitar, keyboard or harmonica. A viola or saxophone perhaps.

If all else fails....Hooker as others have suggested, if he gets an STD he gets to keep it for life and he'll remember you for it!
 
Does he drive? Lessons perhaps or as suggested a track day (license dependant)

If he's not a petrol head.....gig tickets? Music or comedy or perhaps a lovely musical

What did you want when you were 21?
 
Maybe a quality leather jacket or something along those lines? Should last a decent amount of time and is actually something useful/physical. Would perhaps need his input in choosing it though
 
Get fine cigar and scotch for the both of you and welcome him into adult life.

Or go the a gentlemen club with him and do that there.
 
^^^Errmm pretty sure you cant smoke a cigar in a gentlemen's club;) unless they have certain areas where you could.
