Packing!

Only a fortnight to go and I am lucky enough to have the grandchildren here to help, for a whole wet week. (Yip! Yip!) The creek beside the house is roaring. 
I bought a padlock and chain today. Not about to have the baggage stolen from the pack animal (Air NZ).  
Shocked at the technology needed in the saddle-bags. Cell-phone, tablet, camera, MP3, plus chargers for everything - all different makes of course. Plus a Tomtom (Richard Coeur de Lion didn't have maps either). Adaptors for car and French (circular!) plug-points. So much for the eremitic pilgrim.
