nearly finished packing, just got to weigh my bags, I think I should be under the limit

I always wondered about luggage weight limits.. I mean, they don't apply them to people do they? The difference in weight between Mr P and myself is one of our children 😆

😂 no they don't. I have found that if the flight is running late on time they're less likely to weigh bags.

I've seen people panic and root through bags when that little weighy thing comes out.

I often wonder that.

You know that feeling of revulsion you get when you hear a sound like nails on a chalkboard or teeth against metal? It’s called “grima” (from Spanish)

Bring Her Back, an Australian horror movie released recently will give you this sensation. Body horror combined with supernatural elements make it into my top 20 favourite horror films list.

I saw that last weekend and forgot to comment… Omg it’s brilliant! Unsettling from the get go, and then it just gets worse. The brothers have outdone themselves

Early start tomorrow. I'll probably take the bike to work so I won't fully get to experience the change in traffic, but it will be interesting to see what it's like riding then as well
