I think now the time to admit that I stayed in a Travelodge the night before a festival last year, and once we had finished the milk, decaf coffee, coffee, tea and sugar in the room I went to reception and asked for more. They gave me 2 more baskets full of the little sachets and I went straight up to our room and emptied them into a carrier bag. We were well catered for at the festival that year :)

There. I feel cleansed now.

I have to admit that gay friends I was with today also helped with my acquisitions. Having a huge handbag was a distinct advantage.

Seem to remember accidentally gaining a few cafetiares from a service station . Well I did buy them , I think!! Well, that's my story. I take the disposable grinders , and have a few similar ones for the bbq - together with my spray extra virgin , that's the hard bit of cooking done !!

I've only just caught on to the milk thing. I now keep my trangia in the back of the car with some tea bags and coffee. Plus starting to do solo camping. A girl needs milk.

I've never thought about asking for more in a hotel
of course I can

For sauces - as well a obtaining some sachets from the cafe's.  I use childrens paint/craft bottles.  I found some in Wilkos (that are empty) and they are ideal for sauces whereby you don't need take the whole bottle with you!  Came in a pack of 3 so we have ketchup, daddysor HP and either mayo or salad cream in the other.

IKEA are pretty good for sachets in the cafe, but I prefer the ground black pepper from McDonalds myself!!!  Best selection of sauces without a doubt is from Wetherspoons though!!!  Mayo and Vinegar most useful!! I have a small lock n lock box that I keep stocked up.

Schwartz do small salt & peppers with lids on - they're brilliant, you can get them at Tesco etc but I think the last time I got them they were near the spices and not where you would expect (near the condiments)!!!
