Plus ça change...

Travelling light

Off to France tomorrow at omg early. We pack light, since most stuff is down there. In the old days when it was just me and Mr B we just took our passports. Now with kids and technology taking over our lives, we have:

Kids' bag: two changes of clothes, pjs, medical stuff for Conor, dvds.

Mr B's bag: jumper, phone charger, netbook, magazine, keys for the house.

My bag: gardening trousers, socks, chargers, computer, book, notebook, more chargers, K's camera (and charger), various filters, close up lenses, couple more chargers, Oatibix.

And the most essential of all these... Oatibix. Without it, Conor has almost nothing to eat. Deprived of Oatibix he will struggle through whole days on nothing more than two pieces of pasta and a small biscuit. For those not introduced yet to the wonder that is Oatibix, it is like Weetabix, but made of oats. For those not familiar with Weetabix... well just think mushy breakfast food that feels like it sticks to your insides, and you'll have the key points.

I should clarify that I am not sponsored by Oatibix. But I'm beginning to wish Conor was with the amount he gets through. This box will not see through the week. We'll have to try and squeeze in a few sneaky croissant days to make it last.
