65th Wedding Anniversary present?

I have been invited to a 65th Wedding Anniversary. I found a website to tell me that it is called Star Sapphire, I then clicked a link to find suitable presents. Somewhat to my surprise the first to be listed was a video of '100 S*x Games for Couples'. Do you feel this is suitable after 65 years?
My husband's remark was to the effect that there can't possibly be a name for 66 years after that present!

65 years is a heck of time...
But perhaps that present isn't too suitable!

I reported this to my (very broadminded) mother. Apparently Dad is still trying to rescuscitate her.

God, I hope so. There's got to be some perk after that long!
Or maybe a hive of bees for a family in Vietnam?
Dedication of a tree for Scottish woodland regeneration?
Part-ownership of a French vineyard? (ie. a few mangey grape plants ...)
Is there a stone for 65? Something in that colour?

My Mum thought it might be platinum. Star Sapphire sounds prettier.

Platinum is 70 I think...

So my daughter said. I know 55 is emerald.

Don't you qualify for another telegram (or telemessage as I think they're now called) from HMQ? I know you get one at 60yrs hard labour - I think the honour is repeated at 65.
