    When my DH came in he asked about my current obsession with union jack stuff and said if you put all that out people will think we were supporting the BMP now:eek: ... I told him to shut up :D

    I bought my OH an Emma Bridgewater Union Jack tin to keep all his change, washers and crap from his pockets tidy in the kitchen instead of all over the windowsill and work surfaces and he calls it his BNP tin. It has stopped me buying anything else with UJs on, unfortunately (and I love those cake tins and tea towels :( )

    On the keep calm theme, I bought these from John Lewis not long ago for my hypochondriac daughter for her birthday! She's the kind who panics over a paper cut *insert rolleyes here - if we still had it*

    They've got a really cute first aid tin too:
