I've had a list for ages and tick thinks off as they go in the case, then I can't find something on the list so I have to unpack to make sure I haven't packed it already
Well that's how it used to be Now, I put everything in one of those huge plastic storage tubs in the days leading up to the holiday and pack it the night before, ticking the list as I go.
Then I change my mind a million times about what I'm wearing to travel in
Next is the handbag ritual, which one, empty it out and repack, decide that one is too small or doesn't go with travelling outfit and start again.
Suddenly remember that I can't put my perfume in hand luggage so have to open the case again.
Then turn manky winter boot feet into something that can be seen in sandals (most of my holidays are in Nov/Dec) paint nails etc.
I'm actually getting quite good at it all now
