I Hate Holiday Packing

Do I know what to pack – that answer is never Depends on my mood and also the weather Two pairs of jeans and three summer dresses A new skort but I won’t wear it she confesses Nightdress and socks and four t shirt tops If I run out of clothes I’ll go to the shops Sandals and shoes and my trusty old slippers Mustn’t forget to take my new pairs of knickers Wash bag and toothbrush and cream for my face Gosh I’m surprised there was room in my case Jan Allison 8th August 2014

I hate packing! Oh I always just say screw it and buy what I need when I get there. Just remember it never all fits right once you take it back out again

Oh I found that Casarah i bought two big boxes of biscuits as presents - struggled to get everything back in the case - amazing how many 'bits' you accumulate in a few short days LOL - I always over pack and don't wear half of what I've taken LOL. Hugs Jan xxx
