Surprise him. Don't get him one.

Oops blush in my excitement, I misread gj's post as Grantj's

Anyway, perhaps Grantj could buy binoculars for the purpose I mentioned . . . . .

Perhaps he's very tall and needed the binoculars to see his new boots?

I thought he was getting an animal onesie and ugg boots?

Ok, I'll play!

He seemed to be very specific about the ones is and if style boots, so why not ask him to give you a list of ,say, 10 things he would be happy to receive and you pick one of them.

He gets something he will like, but It's still a surprise.

Sorted.

Our grandson turned 10 a few weeks back and we got him a pair of proper binoculars from the RSPB - entry level but good quality. About 50 quid. We took him to Rutland Water to see the osprey chicks and other birds, and he was delighted.
