Tim Richards<p>Fun article. I, too, wonder about those fridge-sized suitcases.</p><p>"... so they stand, pulling off one, then two, then three giant suitcases from the baggage carousel. Each bag is the size of a washing machine. I want to know what’s in those bags. Do you need 20 pairs of underpants for a 10-day trip overseas? I mean, how many bums do you have?"</p><p><a href="https://aus.social/tags/Travel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Travel</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Packing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Packing</span></a> <a href="https://www.smh.com.au/traveller/it-s-plane-rude-the-non-negotiable-rules-of-flying-20240930-p5kerf.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">smh.com.au/traveller/it-s-plan</span><span class="invisible">e-rude-the-non-negotiable-rules-of-flying-20240930-p5kerf.html</span></a></p>
Tim Richards<p>Right I'm off on a short trip to the USA tomorrow (visiting California and Arizona this time), so I'd better start packing.
