Some friends and I have an occasional challenge when it comes to holidays - What is the tackiest most awful souvenir that can be purchased for under 1GBP? I thought my pink heart shaped mini paint box with Durham cathedral on the front was a clear winner until a chap by the name of Andrew Suiter finally beat out all competition with a cigarette lighter from China that had a likeness of Mao on the side, a eyebrow burning flame that jetted with enough force to launch the space shuttle, and played the Chinese national anthem when in use. The question is can we do better (worse) with F1 memorabilia? Do you already own something that pushes the bounds of 'kitschiness' beyond all imagination? If you do then please let us know about it. The rules are: 1. Must be somehow related to F1. (Extra kudos for pushing this rule to the limit) 2. It must cost no more than 1 GBP (220 yen, $1.90, C$2.10, 70 bhat, 1.5Euro etc etc - we leave it to you to calculate this.) - Extra Kudos for costing a lot less than the limit. 3. Cannot be edible - however, honourable mentions are made for really bad food and drink commercial tie ins. Those of you on the way to the Japanese and Chinese GPs will have a distinct advantage - let us know what you find. Click here to post your entries |
