@Cruiser Elite, I didn't have too much time in Sydney on weekend but found these on desk. Have much more but not sure where they are now. Have to check when I am back in 2 weeks.

Does it matter if some are glass not plastic? Glenfiddich one's are glaas.
 
@Cruiser Elite apologies for not getting back to you earlier.

We flew Emirates last night and I asked one of the crew if they could save the empty miniature bottles. I think they looked busy and forgot. When I asked at the end of the flight he came back with 5 full ones. I also had 4 doubles but they haven't been opened. We will take to village and empty the contents and bring back the miniatures.

We are back in 2 weeks. I now have around 25 of these miniatures. I'll post them to you.
 
I got corks from everyone to make this for Christmas last year and all the corks are still in a bag in the spare room - I'll get around to it one day

A bit OT but seeing this gives me a weird feeling of Déjà vu. We were in the PEK Hilton earlier this year, the lounge staff had just opened a new bottle of wine and the couple next to us made a comment that that was a different bottle and they did not have that one. Initially I did not think much of it. I got up to self serve I noticed that the lady had a pile of corks, I proceeded to self serve and gave the cork to her. She was a little concerned about what the staff would think so her husband I agreed to resolve her concerns and proceeded to finish off the bottle. No need for the cork, job done.

She wanted the corks to make a Christmas tree, decorations and other gifts.

In the chaos of packing up my house to sell I found yet another bag of corks - of course I have no idea where they are now but hopefully I will find them some months before Christmas and get started
