    I still got mine, a geniune 1970's era grey woolen blanket with red stitching around the edges and heaps of fel flags sewn onto it.

    I got my Scout blanket still too.

    Grub is IN Goodbye Pork Pie Wellington Railway station. Was a great day out for the Welly Car Club. One of our racing mates Pete Zickovic was the mini driver for the whole movie - cool job.
