And so the time comes...Packing

So with only one day left I have decided to pack.Luckily I live with the most organised woman in the world...my mum. We managed to fit it all in and we were only 2 kg over the allowed weight.

Some excellent top tips for those who still have not packed
1. Roll clothes rather than fold
2. Group things together, and have all the essentials near the top (you don't want to have to go hunting for that toothbrush)
3. Plastic bags are great, put everything in sealable bags, it means they stick together and if anything explodes it will limit the damage
4. put everything in a bin bag, makes everything waterproof
5. with medication/pills try and transfer some over into different packages so you conserve space (you can usually fit another packet in each)
6. Invest in an old lady style pill box (at least for your first week) it means that you have easy access and you won't forget to take anything especially if you are taking new stuff or, like me, you have the worst memory .
