Help bridge mad uncle's 80th bday!!!

Hi,
My uncle is going to be 80 in July. He has asked for a Automatic card shuffler :cool: as he is a big bridge fan (the card game) and plays several times a week. These shufflers are £15 max :cool: There are 4 of us that are all going to put our money together to buy him something special, we were all going to put in about £25 each.
My question is can anyone suggest anything else we could get him? As well as this shuffler thing. Any accessories? I don't know anything about Bridge, but know that he doesn't need a card holder thing as, in his words 'i'm not over the hill quite yet!' :rotfl:
Being that he is going to be 80 we want something special and we thought maybe personalised
Any suggestions are much appreciated.
Thanks :A

Don't know why I thanked you , you should be thanking me :rotfl:
Just got back from the Monday duplicate Bridge club. Played for over 15 years there , total play of about:beer: forty years .
So uncle is staying young be playing the best game in the world.Unfortunately you don't need much to play bridge.
You could get a nice card table.
Or a cloth to play on.

I dont know anything about bridge so cant help much there I am afraid! But as its cards how about a silver playing cards holder/storage box? You can have these engraved too.0
