Evie and I are off on a short break at the end of the week.
So today I have been washing and packing items that I intend to take with me. I like to have it organised and ready, so that there is no last minute rushes. On the few times I leave things to the last minute, I tend to get stressed and feel out of sorts.
So are you like me or a last minute packet? |

if its just a short break or a weekend away its all very last minute packing but I always know what im going to take with me  |

Last minute - I really don't need much to survive.
When I was younger I went backpacking alone around the world and didn't even start to pack until 30 minutes before I had to leave.
Life is more fun when you fly by the seat of your pants. |

We are down to Devon.
To make it clear I don't pack loads, but I just like to know it's clean and ready to go.
Think it stems back to being a kid, my folks were never organised and it used to drivee mad waiting to go anywhere, and being late to places.
I get very twitchy, as evie has witnessed on occasion. |

Have been playing hunt the passport all day for the heir to my overdraft. Not at all stressful...found it luckily as he flies out early tomorrow. Im a last minute packer i'm afraid and it seems i've taught him well...   |

I' really sad when I go away for more than a night or two, I make a list
To be fair, it started when I had my beloved dog. If I started packing too early and he saw the suitcase, he'd sulk and it broke my heart so I had to do it last minute while he wasn't looking, hence the list!  |

If I'm going alone it's a last minute thing. If I'm going abroad with my daughters than I pack about a week before. Just so I can make sure I have everything and if not it gives me chance to get it x |

I always have to check my pockets about ten times for Passport, tickets and money (in no particular order) in the taxi on the way to the airport.
As for packing I am hopeless. I once packed two completely different shoes thinking they were a pair. In my defence they were very similar in colour.
So all packing duties are overseen by the Mrs and she is extremely OCD about it.

I tend to be obsessive about writing a list and get things out the day before and tick them off the list.
Was brought a man bag years ago and is great but do check it about 3 times before it goes in the case.
At the end of the day so long as have my wallet, tickets and passport that's all I really need. |

I'm like you I like to be ready in advance but I tend to pack too much then the morning I'm going I reassess what I have and halve it 
If needed I can do a half hour pack and go though |
