2 tubs Smash
1 tub of Tesco custard powder
2 tins Heinz sticky toffee pudding
1 Tesco individual Christmas pud
1 jar Robinsons Golden Shred
1 jar Robinsons Silver Shred
24 Breakaways
1 bag fun-size Cadburys Twirls
1 big bag Cadburys Big Buttons

The only tea bags I actually had on me were 3 individually-wrapped Twinnings ones from a hotel.

Re: Christmas Crrackers
I've found Branston over here but (a) it's expensive ($5+ for a small jar) and (b) you can't get the one with smaller chunks for sandwiches (which I like, as I eat a lot of sandwiches).
