OK - yes I've seen the gift card thing being regularly mentioned in other threads. So it's is a good 'safe' bet essentially rather than anything else then?
The gift I got her (well, 'in waiting' I suppose) is a small china espresso cup & saucer with a fancy pattern on it that she really likes, but has been discontinued for some years now from the manufacturer. She used to work for a china shop and they gave her a full dinner set as a leaving gift (!) in this style, but her brother snapped it up (to this day I've no idea why) and he now owns it as his dinner set. She is still rather bitter about this and does moan about it whenever the subject comes up!
It was not expensive as I bought it second hand - we're talking under �25, so actually that's roughly the value of a gift card I would get a friend anyway.
I have a good idea of what places she could use a gift card for, so I'll think about that.
