hi

all packed ready to go in the morning, flamborough, not going to check the weather what will be will be?  i always forget something hubbys boxer shorts one year fridge converter another tin opener so what this time hope its not the kids lol. 

bye

Last year I woke up the first morning and OH said `Want a full cooked breakfast?` Yum yum I thought, until 5 minutes later he informed me I had forgotten the frying pans

I`ve got all my lists printed off this year and am ticking things off as they are packed, so hopefully this year I won`t forget anything.

we allways come up with things we must bring next trip but can never remember what they were by the time the next trip comes along

and the cycle continues

(maybe it was a pad and pen to write them down?)

Everytime we go away I forgot something - usually belonging t' t'other half (underpants, socks, wash bag, shirts - not all of them, either or).  I blame him for leaving ALL the packing to me (I already have a pack for the rest of the family and organise ALL the holiday with no input from him - I don't see why he can't sort his little bit of packing out).  I don't do it on purpose (honest!), but perhaps at some subconcious level I'm trying to get him to pack for himself!!!! 

I dread to think what I'll forget this time - probably the gas bottle (just so long as it's NOT tent related!!!)

Brings to mind a camping trip to Fort Augustus in my early years of camping alone with my kids. Got the tent up, cooked the meal only to find out we had no plates so had to eat out of the pot. Three kids squabling over who got the most. When the next morning to buy plates and cups. Explained that I was on a camping trip but had forgoten the plates and the cups. The guy in the shop asked "oh are you with the guy who forgot the tent pegs". Well, no I remembered them. Seem some of us forget this obvious.

Cheers
