Suddenly remembered this morning, that a few years ago I won a plastic picnic set in a game of bingo I searched them out & found I had mugs, plates, bowls, and some solid plastic cutlery. When I was food shopping in Morrisons earlier, they had sturdy plastic glasses for drinkies a just 50p each!!! 2 of everything will be packed in the hand luggage.

Good idea Helen

remember not to pack THAT in your hand luggage

You can get insulated butter dishes which will keep it nice and cool for you. I picked one up in Denmark but I'm sure you can get them in most places. I'm sorry, but for me it has to be butter on my bread as I can't stand 'spreads', so if I can't have butter I'd rather go without.

Me too,they all leave a nasty taste,I would much rather go without than use them,T.
