Help with gift ideas please

I was going to say an English food hamper but not sure it would get to them in time. I’ve friend who I met while in military who lives in Germany and she misses her English tea lol and I miss my German chocolate so we send each other a hamper of all things we miss.

I presume you've heard of these people?

Sago talking of leather reminded me of some leather bookmarks I bought from Not on the High Street. www.notonthehighstreet.com/search?term=leather%20corner%20bookmarks&filter[category_id]=15000
They can have the name of the recipient put on them and there are choices of different coloured leather. It has solved a few gift problems for me.
And if you haven't heard of this website, it's well worth having a browse when looking for gifts.

After I had major back surgery which was complex I wanted to thank the surgeon personally so bought him a nice new pen which was appreciated. Look on Cult pens or just google nice pens. They are small too so luggage friendly.

Perhaps wine, spirits or perfume from duty free shop. Can cary as hand luggage

Small local gifts that are light and easy to pack or alternatively can be sent on by post/courier ahead of arrival.

MissOops bought MrOops a largish handmade magnifying glass some years ago, with a mother of pearl handle. Nowadays you can get them on Etsy.
It was on a bookcase shelf for some time, but nowadays he uses it a lot.

Great so far thanks !, I shall investigate

Gifts made in your part of the UK? food, drinks, soap, a good pen, stationary..... Have a great holiday. I love Italy.....

This company hand makes beautiful typically English leather goods, they can be personalised.
Last year my daughter got us purses,wallets and key fobs.
They are light and would take up very little space
