Don't forget the brevel Depends on who the girl is though, if you don't know her very well then a generic gift is perfectly good, though not if you should know her by well now. Luckily my girlfriend loves both roses and chocolate (though chocolates not so much 'cos of her diabetes so she gets a little annoyed when everyone gets her chocolates for her birthday/xmas). Unluckily she's almost impossible to find gifts for beyond that.
