This is so lovely. I’ve just discovered you Jessica, and now subscribed after reading a few of your Substacks. You are sublime! Perfect for my commute into Liverpool x
Hahaha! I’m sure this will be very useful to lots of your readers. I more or less pack much as recommended by your husband, though more socks and pants as getting stuff laundered can be a hassle. As always you made me laugh and smile throughout. Happy summer to you all 🤩
So… I feel like I pack a similar amount of things and yet… and yet I really don’t think I could fit them in hand luggage.
This is a nice reminder that if I haven’t got into the habit of facemasks and body moisturising I shouldn’t imagine I will on holiday so they can stay home.
I’m definitely going to try that packing video, thanks!
Once, I felt so sorry for this lady whose case had popped open - seeing her pants appear on the carousel and then her case absolutely battered we all giggled, guilty.
Have done the institute of engineering man packing(you tube) for this trip to London right now. Apart from anything else I found him weirdly soothing and capable - like nothing can go wrong with 9 pairs of ‘pants’ and 9 shirts packed, ever
As everyone’s said, packing advice brilliant. I’ve also disobeyed instructions and gone online to order PJs - they’re fantastic. STILL can’t order from M&S.
Oh thank you! And now I have found yours I love it too - this packing list is perfection. I’ve got three children and we’ve been for two weeks in Greece with only hand luggage, this is my favourite subject 😂
This is utterly brilliant
This makes me swoon.

Gosh, what a LOVELY comment, Sara! Thank you. I hope I continue to please x

Yes, you are the master of minimalist packing! Thanks Dad x
A very useful post, thank you. That packing video is genius, although I will forget how to do it come the time. Enjoy the sunshine.
I will! Thank you Ellie.
Best thing I’ve read today and SPOT ON
Hurrah! Thank you, Sam.

The video is essential!
Love this
You had me at identifying Marlboro lights 😂

Yeah, it was mine.
I was travelling alone for the first time ever 😳
Samsonite, always from here on in.
Haa! That's very funny.

NOTHING. I quite agree.
This was great, thank you! Also Sainsbury’s PJ’s look great, I’m rather taken with the lobster print and the double cloth short sets as well…
Ooh, that's worth a look... thanks, Kate.
This is utterly brilliant. And I really like the sound of your Italian incarnation…. xx

Ha haa! Yes., me too.. I think I probably wrote my article years ago...
Absolutely just what I needed to read. Thank you 🤩
Hurrah! Thank you Lucy.
Very enjoyable and engaging. The delights of travel will never again be marred by the agony of packing: I will be too busy chuckling. Thank you!
Ha has! Great! Thank you, Marian.
