Home from Leipzig. Tired but rather happy.

I've just binned my suitcase. Partly because the wheels had started squeaking in an intensely irritating way, partly because it was getting a bit battered... and mostly because the huge bag of chocolate covered coffee beans inside it had exploded, coating everything with sticky half-melted chocolate...

Sorry, [livejournal.com profile] chimera_s, it looks like you won't get those beans. :-/

On the plus side, if that had happened on my way to WGT, it would have been really awkward. As it is, all of the chocolate-coated gothgear needed washing anyway. :)

Full write-up - including quote file and pictures - to follow a little later...

When we got back from NY the staff at Bristol airport left our luggage outside in the rain for an hour. My very cheap suitcase is not very waterproof.

And to think everybody laughed at me when I was packing in TO because of how many plastic bags I wrapped all of my brand new books in.

The intention had been to protect them from shampoo/nail varnish remover explosion, etc.

The take-home lesson is you can't seal up stuff too tightly in your suitcase.
