Ok - I am trying to sort out how much to take for a 2 week holiday in the sun and the pile is sky high.
I do not seem to be able to eliminate any of the items so how do I go about minimising the luggage -
Advice and abusive comments welcome lol:
-
Three pairs of knickers, two sarongs and some washing powder. What else do you need?
-
Shoes for beach
Shoes for night outs
shoes for walking in - a novel concept I agree
Swimwear - enough not to be seen in the same thing twice
Evening wear - same applies as above
day wear for days away from the beach
We are nearly onto 2 suitacses already cry:

You are my wife - I claim £5 noooo:

A friend of mine was preparing for their annual holiday, two weeks with Euro-Camp in Brittany. They had four children and he had given in to his wife's argument that his company car was not going to be big enough and bought a Renault Espace. To this he added a roof box, purchased from Halfords. Day before they are due to set off for the Dover ferry he returned from work to find that his wife had got the new roof box out of the garage and packed it in readiness. Unfortunately she had packed it on the front lawn and couldn't see why he was ranting that she was a stupid b*tch and that it would need to be unpacked before he could lift it onto the top of the Espace and secure it. So she went off in a huff whilst he and the children unpacked everything onto the lawn, he fitted the box to the vehicle and repacked it. Once this was finished she re-emerged from the house to say that all the food she had planned to take was in boxes in the kitchen ready to be put into the back of the Espace. Children were detailed to ferry it, human chain style, to where my pal was waiting to pack it safely into the car. Much muttering from him about the fact that France is the gastronomic centre of the world and that there was no need to take Cornflakes, Weatabix AND Sugar Puffs + 16 loaves of Tesco sliced bread. She replied that "The children won't eat anything else". Then he saw the 12 tins of baked beans, followed by 2 dozen eggs. "FFS woman, they have chickens in France" but the bit that finally reduced him to a gibbering wreck was when she produced 2 cartons, each containing 12 x 1 litre bottles of Evian "Because I don't trust French water".

And it is all true I promise. He showed me the Tesco bill of £250 that she had run up the day before they were due to leave. Yes it has to be admited that she was (a) Blonde and (b) a nurse. On their return we went round for a BBQ and he took the p*ss out of her all evening, to the point that it got a bit embarrassing. She was apparently gob-smacked when she found that Le Clerc's supermarkets (those who have been to Brittany will have used one of their stores) stock Evian, Cornflakes etc and even more surprised that the kids all loved going to the shop and buying local bread fresh every morning.

I wish I had got here earlier. So much good material. DS excelling himself! lol:
I once went on a beach holiday in Greece.I took:
Trunks (not necessary as it turned out redface:)
three T shirts (one to wear, one to wash and one for emergencies)
Shorts
Cotton trousers
Jacket (for useful pockets)
Sandals1 cotton jumper
Some pants (x 2)
Books
Washbag
Anything I needed while there I BOUGHT
On departure I burnt most of the above on a bonfire (not italicised items) and went home in what I stood up in. No luggage. I also burnt my bastard tent. Last time I went camping (1980) evil:

Burnt?
-
Yeah, bonfire.
I even cooked some beans on it! lol:

I hate luggage. The weight. The encumbrance.
Take stuff you need, old stuff preferably, and on departure torch it and walk away free!
Mrs Nick travels with something like a container load of stuff. I take hand luggage and wash stuff on holiday (hot climates a t shirt will dryin about 10 seconds) or buy stuff I need while I am there.

Either. I am sure they have donkeys where she is off to. But they would have to be brave donkeys..................

When's she off? I bet it's much later than tomorrow. Women's packing takes days of planning.

A shot in the dark but I'd guess the weekend. I usually pack after dinner the night before the early morning flight. whistle:

Aren't you good ~ I usually pack by throwing a few things into the car and driving away, after breakfast.
SWMBO however packs so far in advance that her first day on holiday is spent ironing everything that has been in suitcases for at least a week ::)
-
I don't know why but that reminds me of a TV play where the SWMBO in question demanded that her family had breakfast the night before... to save time, like eeek:

It's easy!! Just squeeze in whatever takes your fancy and hire an elephant to sit on the lid whilst you close it! ;D
I do it all the time! A girl must have a large choice of apparel each night to try on and discard.

... 4 x tubs of ibuprofen ...
I'm sure you already know, but I found out yesterday that if I have a Boots card, their Ibuprofen are permanently 1/2 price. Given the headaches, injuries I seem to get with increasing regularity, it'll save me a few bob in the future
Bloody hell that is certainly worth knowing! eeek:
Just in case you or others got an Advantage Card, they will be finishing the scheme on 01.10.2009. So get stocked up on Ibuprofen etc before then
