I am not such a patiotic English person. I know it is nice to have a queen, at least it was – it is now a King. On one of my trips to England some years ago I bought a tin of Shortbread biscuits. The tin had Queen Elizabeth on it. To be quite honest, I bought the tin for the shortbread biscuits inside. I was at the airport waiting for my return flight to Switzerland and had some english coins left, so bought the shortbread biscuits, although it was a nice souvenir of my past days in England with the Queen on the tin.

I know the biscuits though I’ve never had a tin with the queen on it. Or, I was focused on the biscuits and paid no attention to the tin itself. I still have the tin somewhere.

I no longer go to England and am glad I got this one on my last trip.

I bet if you’re willing to wait a bit Trump will get around to hawking biscuit tins with his likeness on it. Hopefully posthumously.

Unfortunately they do not make tins for keeping toilet rolls.

They make good shortbread. We usually buy some as a treat at Christmas. I have never seen that particular tin though. It is a nice photo of the Queen though.

They certainly do a good shortbread. The tin caught my eye at the airport and decided it would be a good sourvewnir from England. It is now full of various sewing accessories.
