Gift Guide 3: Lovely British Dads Who Think Everyone Should Drive a Honda

Gifts for his interests
Sunglasses priced from $95 could suit road trips, scenic drives and errands. The guide suggests trying on frames together, and recommends Patrick Radden Keefe’s *London Falling*, from $15, for someone interested in British history and true crime.
For a dad who writes thank-you notes, low rider stamps cost $12. A $33 Italian money box is another option, especially for a foyer table that has collected spare change over the years.
Comfort and time together
A cozy sweater costs $188 and is pitched for someone who keeps the thermostat at 65 degrees. The guide says the collection draws inspiration from the California coast.
Other practical ideas include a $28 body wash and a $26 headache cold cap, which the writer says is kept in the freezer and works well. A $20 Connections book offers a way to play together over the holidays; a custom version featuring family inside jokes is also suggested.
Treats and thoughtful gestures
A tin of New York cookies costs $72 and is suggested for watching *Frasier* reruns together. The list also includes a donation in the recipient’s name to World Central Kitchen, an organization the writer says both people are proud to support.
A card expressing love costs $6. The publisher says it recommends products it genuinely likes and may earn affiliate commissions or have sponsored relationships with brands, without added cost to readers.
