What Brit Food can I Take to an International Lunch?

Re: What Brit Food can I Take to an International Lunch?
Well I have just been and bought a crock pot and am going for the veggie curry. Although it is originally from Indian/Pakistan i think it has now developed into being a traditional British dish, just like pasta came from China to Italy as far as I know.
Thanks for the ideas people, I would love to take some of the other stuff but not really easy to put on a buffet type setting. i may make a pudding if I can be bothered.

Tripe and onions . Better explain tripe just in case of confusion . Basically a
large stomach of a ruminating animal , quite nice poached in milk .
Up north of England may have gone off the menu but sure as hell will be back , glad to eat anything soon .

Just add coarsely grated onion and sage (mum used to use dried sage) to the batter. They don't rise as much as traditional Yorkies because of the weight.

As a Yank I would consider curry to be Indian, not British, cuisine and quiche to be French. Tuna pasta bake is American as well and here is called tuna cassarole <sp>. I would go with the cheese and onion pasties, bangers and beans, fish and chips, plum pudding, yorkshire pudding, etc. Can any of those be made up on a Saturday and reheated on Sunday morning for the luncheon?
Have been invited to a Sunday lunch where there will be people from a range of countries and I have to take a typical Brit/English dish.
The most typical I can think of is curry! Trying to figure what I can take that will transport and reheat well. thinking either
quiche/tuna pasta bake/cheese and onion pasties/gingerbread oh and did I mention I dont eat meat?
Ideas? I dont have a lot of time to cook.
