Thanks for the advice above, although it's started to go over my head. Realised I might've got ahead of myself and not considered whether she wants this for looking at the night sky or West Yorkshire countryside (they have a new house with views, bastards). Need to give my sister a call but figure if it's the latter then binoculars would seem to make more sense.
Or I could default to getting her some my little pony stuff.
Binoculars are good for star gazing as well, you can pick out some nice clusters and the planets including the Galillean moons quite nicely. Plus they're easy to use and can be taken out for daytime viewing as well.
