I use one of those nylon zip-up shaving kit bags, but always seem to have trouble packing that big lump, especially since it usually goes in toward the end, with last-minute stuff. Do you have a toiletry kit you really like, that's easy to pack? I just some run of the mill bag, its just a matter of keeping the amount of stuff down, electric toothbrush is the biggest thing in mine. It used to be hairbrush till I got a collapsible one. -- Mike Reid UK walking, food, photos "http://www.fellwalk.co.uk" -- you can email us@ this site Spain walking, food, tourism "http://www.fell-walker.co.uk" Beginners UK flight sim addons "http://www.lawn-mower-man.co.uk" |

Do you have a toiletry kit you really like, that's easy to pack? Don't use one at all any more. Just bung the things in the case separately. Anything likely to leak, like shampoo, just put them in individual plastic bags. |

Anything likely to leak, like shampoo, just put them in individual plastic bags. If you're flying these days, the plastic bag is mandatory for liquids, gels, and semiliquid things like toothpaste. I recently flew out of Indianapolis, where a helpful agent was handing out plastic bags to people who had forgotten or were clueless. This was also the first time I've gone through that machine that puffs air at you to discover plastic explosives you might have neglected to leave at home. -- Barbara Vaughan My email address is my first initial followed by my surname at libero dot it I answer travel questions only in the newsgroup |

If not, the nail clippers end up getting lost somewhere and I find them after I get home. I always pack the pajamas and the toiletries bag last. That way, I can find them immediately when I arrive and leave the heavy unpacking to the next day. -- Barbara Vaughan My email address is my first initial followed by my last name at libero dot it. |
