Still got shedloads of washing to do, dry overnight and pack first thing in the morning.

Very organised this time. Have borrowed a travel hairdryer, and I’ve still got my trusty car hair straighteners. I found my passport weeks ago so I didn’t have to do a last minute trip to Liverpool passport office the day before, and I’ve got a satnav that has Europe on it this time. Bonus.

I also have an unknown quantity of bottles of water my Mum brought down at the weekend. I say unknown, there’s actually between 6 and 10. Its not that I have a problem counting past 5 but I’ve refused to look in the carrier bag to check. While I have come to understand that my Mum’s fussing is because she loves me there it’s only so much debate over the correct amount of bottles of water to necessary for a trip to Sweden that one person can cope with.

Lets just assume there’s 6. Any more is a bonus.
