    Yes but many seem to oddly take offence; discussed a while back on another forum.

    A thanks you card is enough assuming you we're a paying client.

    The code of conduct frowns on gifts. Only token value items like flowers or a bottle of wine would even be considered appropriate. A personal letter would usually be more appreciated.
