Brother - 14 into all boy things, football
Sister - 16 into her music (indie) quirky things

    For your brother what about the Guiness Book of Records (approx £10 everywhere but there was a thread about getting it for £5 with a £5 voucher from whsmiths), then maybe a cd or an itunes voucher for your sister.

    for your sister what about a zip it bag?
  • Perhaps if you're crafty you could do these zip-earphones for your sis?

    I hope this helps x
  • At that age I would of loved a voucher to spend in the sales

    Boy - voucher towards computer game or music (Whsmith, HMV, itunes etc) or sports shop voucher
    Girl - Boots, music (as above) or perhaps you might find a local independent store that she likes that does vouchers, or her fav fashion store/shoe shop

    How about vouchers for ticketmaster for your sister she could use them to go see a band she likes.

    not sure for your brother voucher or dvd of his fave footy team.
  • Well how about an online pre pay mastercard. You put the amount on and let them spend online...
    A pretty cool site that maybe your 16 year old might appreciate is girlondon.com- Its a bit like Primark in terms of price but its a lot nicer...
