    Birthday present suggestions

    My sister's 30th birthday is less than 2 weeks away, and I have no idea what to get her!

    She's a Trekkie and a big fan of the Aliens movies but she has quite a lot of stuff related to those two already.
    Both her and her husband are really into D.I.Y.
    She likes to eat healthy and keep fit.
    She's also planning on moving to Australia later this year, but she's waiting to hear from the immigration people to see if she's been approved.

    So, what do you think? What could I get her? I'm stumped!

    Ooo, this is the sort of thread I like. Buying gadets using other people's money.
    What sort of price range would think?
    For £100, I have been loving my DS Lite

    I'd like to keep it under £100. I thought about a DS Lite too, but I think that's more me thinking for me, rather than thinking for her.
