I would recommend using 2 x 1st class large letter stamps and a 2nd class large letter stamp, which adds up to £2.08, but will also hold their value if the stamps go up again between your sending it and the envelope coming back. It won't even get out of the country if there aren't enough stamps on (I know, I've had a couple come back which I've miscalculated the postage on).
The same combination of stamps worked before the recent price increases, so could reasonably be expected to do the same again next time. The small and large letter 1st and 2nd class stamps hold their value the way that US Forever Stamps do, so if you have a choice it is worth getting hold of those if you can.
