It sounds like you are all set :) Have a good time! We’ll miss you while you are away. Looking forward to the blogcards.
ps: I think 4 pair of jeans is perfect - as long as you use a napkin instead of your pantlegs to wipe your hands ;)
Be safe!!

What are the following: Wife beater, strops, takkies? And, do you have a wife to beat?
Anyway, have mucho fun and I’ll see you soon hug
3. Princess of Darkness
Too many jeans. Not enough condoms.
4. Adrian
Wife beater is a vest (cf. American slang)
Srops are what the Ozzies would call thongs and he brits would call flip flops or sandels (it’s flip flops with the back bit)
Takkies are what you guys would call trainers. (cf. Saffer slang)
5. Destructor
10 condoms? That’ll last the flight over, won’t you need some for the holiday itself?

Wife beater is a men’s undershirt, of the tank top variety…think usually called an A style here in the US. Receiving it’s nickname from too many domestic disturbances on shows like “COPS” - the husband usually shown on TV in his “wife beater” tank top.

I know wife beater as the slang for Stella Artois coz of the way it makes ppl arsey.
9. Alli
All I can say it might not make me arsey, but they sure do make my chest look really good!!
10. Sara
What’s a Biltong?
11. Adrian
It’s a Saffer dried, salted and cured meat a bit like beef jerky but loads better.
12. Destructor
It’s great stuff.
Adrian, shouldn’t you be out, I don’t know, partying, or something?

13. Adrian
I am. HavenĀ“t been to bed before 5am yet. I am a broken man.
14. Destructor
When do you get back? Have you set Sky+ to record The West Wing/The Sopranos/Six Feet Under, because I’ve missed them all this week.
15. Adrian
Why have you missed them? Been out shagging?
Recording Tru Calling (I know, I know), Las Vegas & Six Feet Under.
16. Destructor
That’s more or less correct.
I managed to catch a West Wing rerun last night, so I got that, but hold onto that 6FU until I’ve come round and watched it, yo.
