Careful packing indeed. Going with Ryanair, so only allowed 10kg.

Thanks Neon! Sorry to hear that. Oliver, who are you telling, and i'm not flying! Hold on, the landings on Ryanair can be a bit rocky!! Safe journey to you and Sarah!

So in a way, we will all be packing as if the Overlord MOL is cracking down on us with his weighing scales!

I have started rolling things, rolling makes them nice and small!

It's getting serious when I'm transferring my cleaning stuff into little bottles and placcy bags! Have to buy a bucket on arrival though! :)

Found some extra space in the side compartments in the boot, may have to use it...

Getting very hyped up for the trip over, weather looks good too, not here mind...it's raining 'til we leave.

Who are you telling? I am trying to pack the smallest bag as space will be a premium! :) It'll be fun! :) They're tubeless tyres yes?? Space...! What about taping stuff to roof! I think it should be fun! So glad to hear of good weather, we need it! :) Anyone else thought of wearing all your clothes over?? lol

Hopefully bump into you lot over there, heading over on friday morning on the ferry from dublin.

Did someone mention cleaning products? Have you sorted a water supply to wash the car when you get there?

Ya those bloody potholes. Experienced some on flight from Malaga recently. It will be worth it though.

I've had to take tomorrow off work to get the car packed! There's 4 of us in it, along with a buggy, booze, cleaning stuff, camera stuff and god knows what else. Going to be fun!

Ferry is now T-26 Hours!!!!! :1icon_colors: :1icon_cool: :1icon_eek: :)

Well, Booze because I get a good free staff allowance ;) and so I can donate it to a good cause - the MCOI. If the packing gets tight I might have to leave a small child behind but I'm sure she'll cope OK on her own for a few days........ :1icon_eek: :1icon_evil:


BTW - I am joking!
