swifty99 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Hi all, Need your help, in a few months we will be making the big move down under to melbourne, luckily i have alot of family out there all aussy born and bred and never seen Britain. When we get there we will be staying with my sister and brother in law and i want to take them a few presents to say thank you for all their help, but i want them to be things that are truly british things, things you maybe can't get out there or that show something about britain, so i am looking for your ideas please thanks Laura :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest PocketMamma Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Tea - from what I've tried so far the tea you get in the supermarkets is rubbish (unless you like it weak and flavourless). Love the home movie idea - wish I'd done that before I left! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getus2oz Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I too love the movie, blackpool rock, yorkshire tea ideas... add kendal mint cake, thorntons toffee, daddies brown sauce and colemans mint sauce. How about making up a small hamper..... don't forget you'll need to declare food items in your luggage....and pop them into a Harrods Tote shopping bag.
