Picked up another 1,000 whistles from the amazing J. Hudson whistle factory in Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter. Who says we don't make anything in Brum! This factory has a full order book for its handmade brass whistles which are exported all over the world.

If you are at Canary Wharf then the mudlarking exhibition at the Museum is well worth a look.
