I don't envy you at all with the pressure of buying for your in-laws! Maybe buy some nice jewellery? A matching pair of something for them to keep forever?! Just a thought… How about one of these classic watches for father-in-law, and a ring or necklace for mother-in-law?

Get them a rugby ball and apologise profusely for reading it wrong, then give them something better (Or! If they look like they really like the rugby ball - Keep the something better for yourselves

)

How much are you guys looking to spend Mrs Seabiscuit?

We bought a short break away for my in-laws two years ago for their 40th anniversary along with a lovely cake and theatre tickets.

Thats a wonderful present but we couldn't afford anything like that sadkt.

Im thinking maybe the cake as a ruby wedding present as the cost of ingredients and time is quite a lot anyway and its more personal.

How about a voucher for their local Indian restuarant?
