Its 1.05am 28th December

Its 1.05am. 28th December and packing for our trip to Ghana is getting stressful, we put one of our cases on the scales, bum its already over the 25 kilos allowed by BA, what’s more Mary still has a pile to add to the case. I can feel my blood pressure rising.

Mary is trying to convince me that all will be well when we check in at terminal 4, but I cant get the images of past trips out of my mind when standing in the queue at the check-in and seeing those poor people having to empty half the contents from their case to get it down to the measly 25 k allowed by BA
