  • Back from training :)
    Stayed at a hotel.
    I believe that anything consumable they give, you can take.
    So I took
    shampoo
    shower gel
    soap
    coffee/tea/sugar sachets
    little milk thingies
    notepad/pen

    I did NOT take
    toilet roll
    hankies
    towels
    Against my principles (yes, I do have some!)

    What if anything do you take?

    Also does anyone else take a bag/satchel down for the breakfast and croissants/muffins etc fall into bag unexpectedly when seated at table? To join butter and jam? :eek: I find scrambled egg just messes up bag ;)

    Late to the hotel party, but sewing kit, shoe shine kit and cotton wool pads & ear buds :T
    I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. :)

    Weight loss 3 stone :D

    I don't take hotel toiletries any more unless they're really posh as we just ended up with a big pile of them. I'm trying to work my way through all the shampoos at the moment. I do take shower caps though, they're great for putting over the mixing bowl while you leave dough to rise :T :T :T

    What a fabulous idea HG :T

    I take all toiletries which go into hampers, gifts, etc plus tea/coffee/sugar/milk. If Steve and Andy are about, I somehow end up with a mug or towel or something in my suitcase from Steve from their room if they get extras for some reason :eek:

    Anyway, night night as I'm going to get some sleep now

    Hi, thanks for the Blippar info. It seems to change over at exactly midnight, as I have just opened day 2. Didn't win, but I like the app :) In the dim light of my bedroom it tells me that my mirror is an entertainment system and my wardrobe is a luxury hotel :)
