Micro towels.. people either love them or hate them
The trick is to pat dry rather than rub :)

But hubby HATES 'em sooooo.....
I had originally invested in the rather pricey Gelert ones that most peeps on here seem to be talking about coz they DO dry in ultra fast time and pack down to absolutely nowt meaning a better idea when watching the payload thingy of course, every little bit of weight saved, helps.
Hubby detested them and said they were like drying yourself with a bit of sheeting but he had to put up with them for that holiday coz I'd deliberatly taken ONLY those 
So next year I was lucky enough to get hold of the microfibre towels from Lidl and THESE I could pass of as....fairly 'normal' towels due to the fact that they're softer and also fluffier. Anyhoo....they're still very lightweight and dry very fast but take up a teensy bit more space than the Gelert jobbies BUT more importantly, hubby has happily been using them for 3years now and has nooooooooooo idea they're still microfibre efforts What the eye don't see and all that. So he's none the wiser. Wicked of me I know but a gals gotta do what a gals gotta do right girls
Only ONE more sleep till Mevagissey....whooooo hoooooo
And......Microfibre bath and hand towels already stowed in tin tent ready for the off, (inlcuding two of the Gelert ones for me if I go swimming coz I really don't mind 'em that much but they do dry soooooo very quickly). Pooch has his own microfibre towels to which he may well need to get him dried off in the awning if we get our usual Cornish weather......huge apologies to all in that area for the next 2 weeks....best pack yer wellies
