The rule is more flexible than that.
A bottle of London Pride, ESB bitter, an A-Z of London, a jar of
Coleman's Mustard, a packet of Soreen, a tin of Heinz Baked Beans,
Irn-Bru, Scottish, Welsh or British flags would all have sufficed;
you'd achieve bonus points for a skeleton, a Beano, Popeye or the
Jolly Roger, and double bonus points for an ant eater.
The Nescafe and Robinson's Fruit Squash are definitely negative
scores.
