Hi
I have left some clothes, golf clubs & my motorcycle with a Thai friend & his wife for 6 months to save me bringing them back and forth when I visit U.K.
Can anyone suggest a thank you gift they would appreciate and also a suitable restaurant that I can take them out for a slap up meal ?
Thanks in advance
Ps I will be asking them to do this for the foreseeable future years

Cash.
They are preforming a service for you. Don't know what a place like UDStorage would charge you, but I'd say 300-500 baht per month to look after your stuff would be fair.

The Gallery on a Friday is a great place to take someone if they like Farang food, if they prefer Thai there is an eat all you like buffet by Nong Sim park that is always a winner with my Thai family and friends, with visiting Farang too thinking about it.
The forest was shrinking daily but the trees kept voting for the axe as its handle was made of wood and they thought it was one of them.

Totally agree with Jello. The "romantic gesture" of western culture is not important here. A present is NO substitute for hard cash. Where the receiver can CHOOSE what they do with it. It truly increases their happy factor. (This includes wives et al..) with the exception of gold, chanots, cars n motorbikes..

If you’re looking for a thoughtful gift, I’d go for something high-quality and stylish that’s also practical, especially if it’s meant to be memorable for years to come. A chic bag or accessory usually makes a lasting impression, something like a tote or even a versatile crossbody bag is both useful and fashionable. A great handbag could symbolize appreciation and be something they’ll use often while thinking of your gesture.

Male friends don't gift their male friends manbags.
