The president, on the other hand, was pilloried in the British press for his offering: 25 classic American movies which turned out to be incompatible with DVD players in the United Kingdom. And the two toy helicopters for Brown's sons were dismissed by pundits as an afterthought. (Obama's iPod offering to the queen got a thumbs down, too

In addition to Eine's work, Cameron gave the first lady candles from Londonbased perfumer Miller Harris; Malia and Sasha got pink and purple Wellington boots.Related:
