To all of you fellow forumites tired of the ease with which you can insert a folding canoe & a collapsible nasal hair & haemorrhoid trimmer into an Altoids tin, here's a new challenge!
In the UK I have just found in my local Waitrose a tin suitable for a mini-mini-PSK!
It contains tiny mints called "O\ZON", made by Ga-Jol, a Danish firm whose full name is Galle & Jessen. The tin is a cool grey anodised metal colour & is approximately 2 3/8" x 1 7/8" x 5/8" deep. It will actually fit inside an Altoids tin and vanishes in even a shirt pocket.
So far, without even really trying, I have managed to fit into it a Photon-type LED torch, 12 matches, a pencil stub, 2 Ibuprofen painkillers, a condom & some Elastoplast.
Let the games commence!
Update. Here's the total contents so far:
LED torch
Compass
P38 can opener
3 x 20p coins
2 Elastoplast
Condom
6 matches
2 pins
2 safety pins
2 paper clips
2 scalpel blades
2 x 400mg Ibuprofen
20 of 50lb kite line
Personal ID & medical info.
Pencil
maximus otter
