I know I saw your post as I was awake as well LOL! Yes best to take them incase you have any spillages or leakage & roll them into sausages so they take up less room, my provider has advised take hand luggage only so I just need a thin kimono type wrap & my clothes are sorted - got to get all my bits tho xx | |
