    Print them out on A4 paper (or use 1 hour quick printing service at Boots etc) and put the pages in a display book with clear pockets?

    I'm sure they'll appreciate the photos and the thought that went into it just as much.

    I have made 3 photo albums like this in the past, which my Mum (for her 50th) Grandad (80th) and Brother (21st) have all loved.

    I used a large square photo album from wilkinsons, the self adhesive type that you peel off the film, pop the photo's in, then restick the film to hold the pictures in place.

    I printed off photos from throughout their lives, and sorted them into sections, so in Grandad's I had his childhod, his time in the war, when we met my Nanny, his work life, children and grandchildren.

    I put a simple printed off (from word) divider before each section. In Mum's I used red and gold 50 confetti to stick in as well.

    Not sure how much sense this makes, but they really were appreciated. I bought 2 more albums in the sale recently for future milestones!
