Just read a summer special magazine where they are reporting what us Brits HAVE to take with us on holiday. Apparently millions of tea bags are taken, also Marmite!!
I take a plastic jar of coffee, sweetex, and tea bags for that first cuppa
passport, tickets and bank cards.
everything else is much further down list.
i hate tea, but i now have to take all sorts of teabags(green tea and fruit teas) on my trips to spain to keep the locals happy.
Loads of nice hair care products for me, as my hair hates all that sun and sea and it's almost impossible to get a comb through unless I take supplies of leave in and intense conditioners!
hair straighteners for me too , how did I live without them?
Also good reading matter, suncream, ipod, tweezers and lots of travel size clinique products.
