  1. Stuff like that I buy local once at the site or just before I arrive if its a remote location.
     
  2. Do you only drink 1 day in 4?

    Hey Ricky, I never forgot I just pretended not to notice :) Its one of those classics over 5 years of our life will be better if we had this and this and this. Now we have loads and are cutting down and also compacting as last years holiday was crazy with no room.

  7. Drink alcohol that doesn't need to be drunk cold.

    i.e ale or red wine

  18. And on a similar note, I once tried to get a Sunday Telegraph delivered to a vw show I was at. The conversation with the newsagent went a bit like, 'but do you have, like paper boys, you know, on push bikes...'
    And then I hung up and thought of something else amusing to do.
