mikeb Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 (edited) Hmmmm, is it time to pack yet I wonder ? Got this huge F/O great mountain of stuff various in a pile and a mostly empty rucksack so there is just a possibility of some packing action sometime soon(ish) methinks. Nah, there's no doubt another 29 shiny new pages on the weather thread since last night and shedloads of other stuff to read as well so maybe later Just .. need .. to .. stop .. meself .. from .. testing .. the .. contents .. of .. the .. recently .. procured .. bag .. of .. munchies .. various .. that .. is .. rather .. conveniently .. lying .. very .. provocatively .. on .. top .. of .. said .. pile .. and .. smiling .. at .. me .. or .. yet .. another .. trip .. asda .. will .. be .. needed !!

barney73 Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Arrghh no, haven't packed yet and only have about an hour later tonight to do so. Have been so busy planning everything I need that nothing has gone into the rucksack yet or on the trolley. I keep having waves of adrenalin running through me as I sit at my desk at work.

Dirty Bobby Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 I've just aired and packed up the tent from camping down Llangennith last week. Now I just need to start sorting out and packing up everything else, plus go to Tesco for supplies!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nataliealana Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 I knew id get really hyper once id packed so I decided to leave it till last minute. My backpack is ripped so my stuff may fall out. The bit to attach my rollmat to has snapped off. I bought travel deoderant 5 days ago, took the can out of my bag and its EMPTY. I sprayed it in the shop and shook it to check it was full. Theres now nothing there. WHERE DID IT GO? I have no socks. I bought a new purse so I didnt have to take my big one but it doesnt have space for cards or notes. I swear it did when I bought it. I bought stuff to make sandwiches and it appears my flatmates have eaten it. And I cant get into town before I leave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jutt69 Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Damn! I knew there was something I forgot to do. *runs off to start packing* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runner Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 I'm trying! Clothes won't fit, and I've even bought those bags from argos where you squeeze the air out so your stuff is vacuum packed Once I've sorted that out, I can get on with sorting everything else out ... this was supposed to be a light one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pezzypops Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 i'm officially packed now. just got to put it in the car but i'm gonna give that a hoover first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johntrfc Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 virtually pakced had a bit of a nightmare in not being about to find the sleeping bag compession bag thing. was looking for hours and eventually found it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeb Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 (edited) Whooooo Hooooo and all that, I is now officially all packed and ready to go, yaaaaayyyyy !!!! Gotta be an all time record as this has to be the earliest ever. It's more often than not done the same day as I leave at stupid o'clock in the morning A somewhat back/ball breaking load (yet again) this year mind you and me back is already well past it's prime despite being hacked about with years ago 3 cheers for whoever invented the NSAIDs I almost live on I say ! I've absolutely no idea what the official capacity of Ye Olde Rucksack is as it was made long before litres were even invented I reckon but a quicky measure up suggests that it's around 65-85 litres or thereabouts. Everything is within, no dangly bits or stuff looking like it's trying to escape, but it weighs in at a depressingly lumpy and almost tear inducing 60+ lbs Fcuk ... absolutely no doubt as to who ate all the bl**dy pies is there Mr.Rucksack !!! Add to that Ye Olde Tent plus poles, pegs, flag pole, roll mats and stuff weighing in at 30(ish) lbs ... and I'm seriously thinking of advertising for a Sherpa or acquiring a small donkey before tomorrow morning Oh well, at least Ye Olde Tent Bag is coming fitted with shiny new wheels this year so that should help, providing the b*ggers stay on of course !

madspaceangel Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 I am packing too much but it is all WRONG anyways!!! There is much trolley wrangling happening and debate about the merits of a staka box on the aforementioned trolley. Sad bastards we are. Now where's my bloody chinese. I need fuel! I need chinese and I need it now or I cannot finish the packing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
