I’m off to stay with some family friends for a couple of weeks and what to take them some English ‘stuff’.

What are the suggestions for top english gifts?
Already packed some marmite and some whiskey.

Thanks in advance
Joe

what country?

English ‘stuff’

whiskey

This should be good…

Are they e-pats? If so, ask what they want bringing with you.

pataks curry paste and naan breads
ribena
jelly babies
poridge oats
branston pickle
walkers salt & vinegar and cheese’n onion crisps

It’s what i really miss here in Italy

Do NOT take brown sugar, no matter how much they beg you. It WILL explode in your suitcase, and you will still find traces of it years later.

Edit: same goes for cocaine I guess.

Stilton

Marmite.

You mean we still make stuff?

Pot Noodles (and more seriously Birds custard and tea bags)

Goog call fubar… birds custard

Can’t remember which one I have used in the past, but even though pricey it sorted out drunken craving.

Are they English and missing a bit of England, or foriegn and wishing to see what makes the English tick? Where are they?
Jar of rainwater?
Piece of pavement with chewing gum and vomit?

Went to stay with some ex-pats in France last year. Took some Jo Malone smelly house stuff (suitable expensive and looks very nice). Worked on the basis that the husband is minted and needs nothing so bought for the wife.
