Friend of mine is visitig from HK in a couple of weeks, wants to know if theres anything shes wants me to bring.

Is there anything particularly note-worthy from there thats worth having if you can get it?

(apart from a bottle of Vanilla Absolut at dutyfree)

Absolutely correct! Rates have gone from HKD16 v GBP to 11.3 v GBP in the last 4 months. Great if you are paid in HKD and send money back to the UK, absolutely ste the other way round (I assume you earn GBP?)

I'd thank her for her kind offer but politely decline.
