Little Travel Tips
« on: September 23, 2018, 10:23:00 AM »
Do you have any travel tips? Packing, flying, holidaying etc...

This may die a death as a topic but I'll kick it off.

Those 2 in 1 or 3 in 1 coffee sachets are brill if your day starts with a cuppa on the balcony (as ours all do with Radio 2 on the radio app where wifi strength allows :D )

No more faffing around with endless sachets and silly little pots of milk :D

Next..!

Put half your clothes in Steph's case and vice versa

I've probably got loads if I think about it, I'll post them when I do.
But I agree those 3 in 1 coffee strips are handy if your first drink of the day is coffee as it is for my OH. Unfortunately mine has to be tea so have to faff about with tea bags and those silly little pots of milk! Unless someone else has a good tip to get round it   ;)

Do you remember instant tea? I'm sure it was a thing. Red & white label jar, I think you could get lemon tea flavour as well.

Think I do remember instant tea and I've certainly seen lemon tea in a jar.  Not too sure what they'd taste like though.  Probably better with the tea bags and pots of milk!   ;) ;D

Put shoes only in one of your cabin bags and then you can let that bag be put in the hold for free, keeping your other bag for the cabin.

Saves the trouble of trying to find room in the overhead lockers for two cabin bags.

Not keen on the al lin one coffee strips but we drink green teas with various flavours anyway - so it’s a case of packing a few to see us through the week (s)

I think they're ok - we take the 2 in 1 type and add a sweetener.  The 3 in 1s are shockingly sweet.

Another tip - don't bring a load of two pin plug adapters. Bring one, and a UK extension lead  :)
