    It has the map of london's Underground.
    Second tin . Australian Out Back Tea
    Label on how to make Billy tea[ name of container.]
    Bring billy to the boil over a hot fire
    use a stick to lift off the fire remove lid
    Don't burn your fingers.
    Return to fire until it bubbles again
    Remove then toss in a palm of tea leaves
    and wait until its brewed. For a change in flavour
    leave the lid off when boiling to add a smokey taste
    Or add a couple of gum leaves for that dash of
    Eucalyptus. Other Label how to make [Damper.]
    Damper is the Australian Bushman's Bread.
    1 cup self raising flour plus a Generous pinch salt.
    and a scant 1/4 cup of water, [Too much and its like
    an old boot] Dig a foot-deep hole near fire and add
    two shovelfuls of hot coals and ash
    Use either a camp oven or metal foil [Greased]
    to contain the damper in the hole
    During cooking the dough increases in
    volume by 1/3 rd to half. Maximum cooking
    time is 40 minutes if coals too hot the outside
    will be burnt the inside raw.
    If undercooked you'll get a flat rubbery mess
    Wash down with a cup of outback tea
    brewed over a campfire.
    Both tins 2 1/2 by 2 inch
