Help - 30th Birthday ideas - up to £200?

[JVB]

Hi

My mates and me are all chipping in for each other's 30th birthdays this year, and it is my turn next month, so they will have no more than £200 to spend and I need to give them some ideas

So far - Horse portrait from photo (looked at few artists on here - all good, but cost will come in to it!)
Double bridle (for if we ever get good at stressage)
Experience - lessons with top instructor, etc, etc

Any other ideas?

Thanks in advance!

that might be a good idea - they can look after the horses for me for a week while I relax and thaw out at home!

Think we're trying to get something to treasure long term - last mate was bought a tiffany necklace for her b'day. I'll add here I'm not really into jewellery that much!

portrait is a good idea PF on here does excellent ones

how about something pretty like a 5 point breastplate, i got one and i adore it

I would go with a portrait, its something you are unlikely to buy for yourself and will be a lovely everlasting memory.

2nd choice would be lessons, not necessarily with a 'name' just someone who you get on with and like

Another portrait vote, PF did one for me and it is something I will always treasure.
