We regularly exchange gifts with numerous friends in America, some of the things we've sent are;
A sculpture from a local artist
Drawings of Winchester Cathedral where we live
A hamper of traditional English comestibles
A Barbour Wax jacket (or other hunting stuff)
A British silver hip flask
Coffee table books of pictures of the British Isles.
Something from Laura Ashley
Jokey books on "How to be British"
Etc, etc....my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...
