Instead of beginning to load the camper for next week's trip to south Wales, I went to http://www.packinglistonline.com/ and completed all the fields, just to see what suggestions the site would come up with.

Good for a laugh! :D Apparently, for Wales, I need my passport. I also need a "waist bag for the car" (is this the automotive equivalent of a bumbag, that ties round it somehow?), the SAS Survival Guide, gas tanks, a chemical toilet, more waist bags, a thee pot . . . :confused: (Is this an alternative to the chemical toilet?)

Try it: go on – next time you're off, on even a short trip, see what this site suggests you pack/take along. And don't forget the kitchen sink. ]]> IAMToffeekit http://www.womanandhome.com/forums/threads/76625-And-don-t-forget-the-kitchen-sink http://www.womanandhome.com/forums/threads/76558-Portugal!?goto=newpost Mon, 20 May 2013 18:12:25 GMT Have posted this on 'your lives' too but wanted maximum coverage!!

Hello knowledgeable ladies. I know there are some of you in Portugal and as OH and I have dicussed going there for a holiday this year I thought I would ask your advice. We will be driving from France so will probably stay in the north. Neither of us have been there so looking forward to a change. Will be staying with our three boys camping but would like to be easy distance to beaches and activities etc but budget is not endless!! Anyone been there, live there or camped there and can share good ideas?

Thanks in advance! ]]> BeauSoleil http://www.womanandhome.com/forums/threads/76558-Portugal! http://www.womanandhome.com/forums/threads/76401-Birmingham-Lunch-Club?goto=newpost Fri, 10 May 2013 23:01:23 GMT Thank you Ladies for making me feel so welcome today.

I am flying to Edinburgh next week and don't really want to take my passport, preferring instead to use my driving licence which the airline states is fine.

However, is just the card with my photo on fine, or do I need the paper bit also? Been googling and can't find the answer anywhere!

Many thanks ]]> Optimistic http://www.womanandhome.com/forums/threads/76321-Domestic-travel-ID-question http://www.womanandhome.com/forums/threads/76200-December-sun-holiday?goto=newpost Mon, 29 Apr 2013 12:30:36 GMT Can anyone suggest a warm sunny location for a December holiday, without having to fly for more than4/5 hours?

It works for us as we shop at BP for petrol and Waitrose for food and both these accept AE card. It is true that not everywhere does accept them because they charge more, but we were able to use it to book our last 2 cruises which added a lot of airmiles.

So far we have used them to go to New York and this year to Prague. We are also using them to for flights to Cape Town next year.

Previously we had a Mint card and got nothing for using them so will be investigating other cards not to see if any others give you extras like nector points etc. ]]> tuzanne http://www.womanandhome.com/forums/threads/76187-American-Express-Car http://www.womanandhome.com/forums/threads/76151-Tuzanne?goto=newpost Fri, 26 Apr 2013 18:27:43 GMT How was your cruise - it sounded such a fascinating and different itinerary: was it as good as you expected it to be?
