For my mums 70th, I bought mum and dad hotel vouchers so they could go away together for a few days.
Opting for vouchers was a safer option than just booking something directly as it meant I wasn't dictating where or when they went, just which group of hotels they would need to make their choice from.
In the end, they had a lovely couple of days away in a spa hotel in the South Lakes which they both enjoyed.

if they are both fairley mobile,a nice little break away somewhere,or take them to one of those realy beautiful old Hotels for afternoon tea,you get your own butler,and they treat you like royalty |

How about sending round a troop of well-endowed male strippers lathered in baby oil dancing seductively to the sounds of Right Said Fred's "Don't Talk Just Kiss"?
Could be a talking point over dinner in the future. |

Secretly contact all her living relatives and ask them to spend a few minutes handwriting their personal recollection of a happy moment spent in your mothers company, then paste them altogether in a scrap book with any old photographs you get of these relatives…….!.
