What will be in your stocking this year?

Lots of useful BA-themed gifts out there you might want to hint for, or buy for your friends and family.

Here are a few selections to help you below - do you have any of your own?

And, slightly off piste, those who haven't read it might enjoy Nevil Shute's "In The Wet" classic, which has an Aviation-and-Empire theme, with a hint of Her Majesty, and a Concorde-style Royal Flight which might pique interest:

I have a BA mug...

Ah yes, well spotted. In The Wet and On The Beach have the same author, both excellent reads despite their age - mind was wandering!

Shute postulates the use of a BOAC Avro Atlantic at the Queen's Flight:

They sell them at BA headquarter at Waterside (next to LHR). They also have other merchandising.

I wasn't aware there was a retail store there.

Phil the Flyer

How about BA PJs?

oscietra

I think that would be a tad cheap, n'est ce pas?

Maybe you could buy them for PUCCI GALORE.

Though I feel certain she only wears Yardley English Rose when between the sheets.....

I prefer the stuff that's in J, I am sure someone will be around to inform me what is.

If you want to recreate the on board club bathroom smell this is the stuff. Also pretty reasonably priced at 15 pounds!

From the blurb it seems to insinuate that they couldn't find any men who washed their hands to survey.
