::)...well..suppose the original cartoon characters are made in Britain even if the T-shirts are not ... ::)
Is anything made here anymore.

Brompton bicycles?
I bought a souvenir t-shirt in New Zealand (nice fern design). The label says "Designed and marketed in New Zealand. Made in China". ::)
Sorry to hijack this thread but my 13 year old granddaughter was in trouble for buying a tee shirt. She thought it was lovely & promised not to wear it when the grandparents were around ;D. It had a lovely picture of an EGG, underneath the EGG it said ' I got laid today' Do I laugh or not ;)?
;D ;D ;D definitely!

Call me old fashioned, but not at 13 yrs, she may not understand it fully, but may give the wrong message to boys. Shocked of Enfield. :( :(
Thank you ladies. Borlotti, I can see where you're coming from but no, boys definitely wouldn't get it wrong with her. With the sex education they get these days she's more aware than I am. One of her friends who is a boy ;D walked miles to bring her mum a box of choccies on her birthday & to get in granddaughters good books. It worked with mum but not GD.
I once bought a souvenir keyring in Paris, a cube with plaques of the different sights on, Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame etc.
Made in England.
I also spotted a familiar item on my bosses desk back in the 70's. He told me he bought the statuette in Cornwall and it was a Cornish Pixie. Oddly, it was identical to the onyx statue I have of Tlaloc, the Aztec rain god and was made in Mexico. Hmm.
