Some Minor Packing Issues

Well, the arguments have just started!

Chris has finished work almost a week before we go, on account of the fact that she needs to decide what goes into her 20 litre pack. Now I’m not say that I didn’t start it but really... how much time do you need to decide on 2 tops, some trousers and a pair of sneakers.

Anyway, I decided to sort of put it to her in the subtlest manner I could (knowing that females can be a bit sensitive about these things). So with all the tact and empathy I could muster I sort of said to her: “What’s with you and all that junk!” Don’t know how much more helpful I could have been, I mean I was really looking forward to us sharing the packing. I thought this is a good time to bond. She’s got a ton of room in that thing and can carry my boogie board – that’d give her a sense of purpose I thought. Yeah, yeah I know what you’re thinking, but the boogie board is clean.

Well I really wasn’t prepared for the response – an now she’s in the lounge and I’m in the kitchen and that looks to be the way it’s going to be until she realises her mistake. Not sure how big a A380 is but it might not be big enough for both of us. Anyway if things improve I’ll let ya know.
