We’re not sure whether it’s a distinctly British tradition, but alongside annual school photos, parents are often bestowed the opportunity to purchase tea towels.
These aren’t just any old cotton rags, for they tend to feature hilariously drawn self-portraits lovingly crafted by little ones in primary school. They’re also quite magical tea towels, as they seem capable of lasting for decades longer than regular old shop-bought ones. Some of our parents have become grandparents in the time that our primary school tea towels have lasted.
