Maybe we can remind the ex-president about our ex-PM's gift to him,  a hand-made surfboard bearing the presidential seal.

The diplomatic gift was presented to Obama by then Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott, whom himself is also a passionate surfer, during with Abbott's official visit to the US in 2014, causing some criticism as a "ridiculous" gift.

According to Daily Telegraph, the custom made longboard by Bennett Surfboards, a local Sydney manufacturer, was made in in a week, is designed to look like Air Force One, the president’s jet, and has the Presidential Seal as well as both the Australian and US flags glassed into the deck.
