Present Ideas Please!

I'm going over to India to meet my partner's family soon.

Giving presents is a cultural expectation, and so far I've got his parents, sister and brother in law, and one grandmother sorted.

I'm stumped for his other grandmother (late 70s) and grandfather (late 80s). I've asked DP but he doesn't really know - helpful! They don't go out much, they're Muslim, so no alcohol. I'm looking to spend max £20 each as I've already bought wider household gifts. It can't be anything too personal as they're very traditional, and I haven't met them yet.

I'd really appreciate any suggestions for that age range please.

What have you got the other family members?

Mum - ornamental lantern thing and a scarf.

Dad - leather watch travel case.

Sister - bag.

BIL - belt.

GM - handcare set (she likes things like that).

Plus fancy biscuits, chocolates etc.

A book of photos of London or England?
Or a book of English gardens?
A photo of you and your partner in a nice frame.

A book of English gardens sounds really on point! So does a photo frame. Not so sure about the picture of you and your SO in it, might not be quite acceptable as a first meeting gift, but a photo frame on its own is a nice thing to give. Could be a digital photo frame with an England scenary slideshow.
