    Hi,
    My sister and her family are going to Australia soon to visit my brother.
    I’m wracking my brains to think of something to send with her.
    Any ideas what a 40 year old Irish guy would want to receive in Australia from Ireland?
    Maybe something to remind him of home. A bucket of rain? 😂

    Box of cheese and onion Tayto. That's what I have to take anytime I go to my friend in the UK.

    Yeah I’d agree, Tayto or King and Barry’s or Lyon’s tea ðŸ‘

    You won't get into oz with meat, bread after 24 hours off travel might not be great.

    Tayto and teabags are readily available on Australia at this point well in the bigger cities anyway. If he has a sweet tooth, cadburys chocolate is completely different over there.

    Hi OP, as this isn't a personal issue, I'm moving it to the Gift & Party Ideas forum as your thread is better suited there.

    All posters should note that the Gift & Party Ideas charter now applies.
