The small dishes given for olive oil or to put the teabag in make for good souvenirs.

A friend has something of a collection of TPR chopsticks from Changi. I confess I was tempted (they have a lovely weight and balance) but the staff were so attentive, I have no idea how he manages it.

I inherited some SQ oyster forks from my mother after she died. Seeing as she didn't eat oysters, I imagine they were given as a gift, rather than a self-gift (they would be at least 25 years old)

I have some TK salt and pepper shakers and some mini candles from a Q-Suite which make nice night lights when in an unfamiliar AirBnb. I asked for them and was allowed to take them.

I’ve recounted this story before, but this thread reminds me of the time my mother went to a hotel reception and asked for a pen and paper.

‘Are you a guest of the hotel madam?’

‘Certainly not’ she shot back…

‘I’m paying to stay here!’

We have SQ soup spoons, alas one broke recently and we haven't had the chance to replace it.

Clearly you have excellent taste, @MARTINE . Also from FCO, but from the BA Lounge there. From memory, these spoons may have been the best thing about that whole lounge experience....

Ok, another attempt to create plausible deniability. It wasn't me, blame my parents for what I've become

They really are very cool.
I enjoy using them for chutneys etc..
Yes — we have great taste

Kooka - how can you be like that? Have you forgotten I adopted you!!

Does this count ?

I remember back in the 70s we were at a ball (when they were popular for workplaces) at the then new Hilton hotel in Melbourne, Two things stick in my mind - firstly the wife of MrLtL's boss gathered up stuff on the table that had Hilton on it and stashed in her bag - think serviette, salt/pepper, sugar etc. Secondly I was dancing with the boss (as one had to do) and as I knew he was a mad South Melbourne supporter., said that perhaps his son would end up playing for South Melb. The response was "I couldn't wish for anything more'

Actually, a "collector" must've visited the Ladies in BNE Dom J.
