Ideas for a 40th present I could post?

A good friend will be 40 soon. She now lives in Australia and I would like to send her a present. Obviously something which won't cost an arm and a leg to post! Budget up to £30. Any ideas?

It will cost £16-20 to post something tracked

Buy something online from an australian store and have it sent directly.

John Lewis also delivers to Australia at a v reasonable postage price. As do lots of other British brands. Worth considering.

A voucher/gift card? A very lovely friend gave me a £100 Space NK gift card for my 40th which was LOVELY.....

A pair of unusual earrings - personal and yet very light to post. Try "Not on the High Street" if you want to mail order - they have an almost infinite variety of styles.
