hi guys
Sis in law and hubby is moving to Singapore, trying to work out what to buy them as a gift, that also doubles up as an anniversary gift. Don't want to get them something they cannot travel with obviously. Any ideas? looking to spend up to £50. Thinking cash, but they have plenty of that, lol.

There are some nice handcrafted metal poppies for sale on ebay, they look fairly lightweight and would make a nice keepsake, and perhaps remind them of home ..........0

That would be a good idea but not from Ebay.
I'd go to an official place where the money goes to a charity.
How about a Battle of Britain lapel pin http://www.poppyshop.org.uk/battle-of-britain-spitfire-poppy-1940-p7350-poppy-pin.html
Quote - Recently the plane underwent restoration work, during which some of the original metal, duralumin, had to be removed. TMB Art Metal were able to obtain this metal to create what must be some of the world’s most unique lapel Pins!
Not worth much in scrap value but the history of where the metal came from would be quite a unique gift and all profits go to charity.:footie:

You could take photos of the local area and places they've been while living there, add some family photos and have them made into a photobook.0
