  1. We've just been talking about our packing for our holiday next week.

    We're so used to trying to get everything we need for two people for two weeks in one large suitcase, that having the freedom to fill the car boot with a mountain of stuff for the two of us, and some things for our daughter as well, is a completely different mindset.

    The uncertainty about the weather is another complication (although I'm not taking my shorts!)

  7. Large bags full of possessions are not allowed by the Vinaya. Monks/nuns are allowed only one small shoulder bag/purse. If lay people want to send school supplies and sweets to another country, they should either use the Post or use their own airline baggage.

  8. Nothing like a well-packed Berthoud bag.

    Mini-laptop, hardback book and cycling clothes for the longer ride home.

    On the train now a little early haven’t travelled this way around in ages. It’ll beat the wind though and I didn’t need to get up so early.

    Now to read a little of Ness, by Robert Macfarlane. Introduced to his work by the beautiful record by Hayden Thorpe which was inspired by his reading of it and the obsession with Orford Ness that followed. I sense I may have to ride over there.

  13. Also fixed this luggage scale that wouldn't go back to 0 anymore. Turns out all it needed was a little lube on the geared plastic slider that drives the dial and voila, back to zero.

  14. The last time I put my #luggage in an old-fashioned #suitcase, I lifted it too rapidly after check-in because I was in a hurry to catch my flight, and my #massive #manly #musculature propelled it upward so fast it punched a hole in the #airport roof. Air traffic control lost track of it at the #Karman line where it was still traveling at considerably more than escape velocity. It's probably somewhere in the #asteroid belt by now. So I'll stick to the wheeled variety. Just safer for everybody.

  18. Airlines Adopt Apple's Lost Luggage Finder

    A major new feature is helping travelers reunite with lost luggage. TentorTech reports that dozens of airlines worldwide have now adopted Apple's 'Share Item Location' tool. If you place an AirTag or compatible tracker in your bag, you can generate a temporary, secure link from the Find My app. You can share this link directly with airline staff, allowing them to see your bag's loca...

  26. OK, Santa, I've decided what I want for Christmas. I want a #carry-on suitcase like this, with Tardis properties, that never weighs more than 10 pounds no matter how much I stuff in it. Thanks, big guy.

  28. 5 ways to quickly identify your #luggage at the #conveyorbelt in airports
    1. Choose Bright or Unusual Luggage Color
    2. Put a Luggage Tag with an Eye-Catching Design
    3. Wrap a Ribbon, Scarf, or Belt Around the Handle
    4. Use Stickers or Decals
    5. Take a Photo Before Check-In

  29. I need a new #carryon #luggage, a #trolley and I want your opinions:

    I'm leaning towards 2 wheels (in contrast to 4 or 8 wheels) because:
    - better on rough surface
    - doesn't float around in bus/train (8-wheelers with wheel locks by #Hinomoto exist very rarely)
    - was OK so far for me, so the advantages of more wheels are not worth the downsides(?)

    Furthermore, I'm inclined to take a semi soft case (in contrast to soft or hard cases - latter in Polycarbonite or Polypropylene):
    - much more robust when handled after occasional check-in
    - can be squeezed when necessary
    - supports sufficiently for, e.g., transport of LP records
    - has a certain structure that supports packing with #packingcubes (you need those!)
    - no scratches

    Must haves:
    - airplane compatible size
    - side-handle
    - expandable top handle
    - good and large wheels

    Not necessary:
    - internal straps and compartments

    Is it really worth the price when buying something beyond the 80€ class of #trolleys?

    Challenge my positions!

  30. Es muss nicht immer das Lastenrad sein. Manchmal tut es auch der Kinderwagen, wenn der Kaufrausch mit einem durchgeht... (und das Baby hatte Spaß auf Mamas Schultern)

    Ich besitze ein KFZ, versuche aber die Nutzung so gut wie möglich zu vermeiden. Alles in der Stadt geht eigentlich ohne.

  31. The longer we endure
    this grinding marathon
    existence
    the more unsecured
    things drop off

    People too

    Part of the program

    Gotta travel light

    Reduce the load

    Drop off our #luggage
    at the curb

    Lose what you
    do not need
    but
    take heed
    you don't
    misplace yourself en route

  32. Re: the crash of the Delta plane at Toronto Pearson today...

    In the safety briefing, they tell you that in the event that you need to evacuate the plane, you DO NOT STOP to get your carry-on luggage or anything else. You just go.

    And my partner just saw video from the crash, with some asshole coming out of the plane dragging a gigantic suitcase.

    The plane was upside-down, with wings broken off, and on fire. This was pretty much the textbook definition of "emergency evacuation".

    Hey, jerk, what if you slowing everything down to grab your oh-so-important suitcase resulted in people behind you burning to death?

    Can we find that guy, and charge him with something serious? "I'm too important to leave my carry-on behind, I don't care if it puts others at risk" is NOT OKAY.

  33. I’ve grown to really dislike clamshell #suitcases. But few hardshell #luggage makers do anything else!

    The traditional flip open top takes up much less room when rummaging around and is easier to push shut.
