British present for a Canadian?
Hi,
Can anyone recommend a good Brit-themed present for a Canadian? I am going over to visit a family friend and wanted to take them a present.
Thanks!

Box set of Till Death Us Do Part with Alf Garnett.
This should give Canadians a rare insight into how tolerant Brits were of people from different ethnic backgrounds in the 60s & 70s.
Would they even allow a series like that on TV nowadays?
