Food, drink, containers, clothes and insect repellents to pack for trips and holidays

Food
Fresh fruit
Grapes are bite-size pieces, easy to handle, easy to divide.

Drink
At home I tend to refresh with tap-water. The sparkling, flavoured water is a treat for a trip or holiday.

Containers

 A soup container from Waitrose on the left. On the right is a yogurt pot with a lid and handy handle from Tesco. Use them as food containers, or litter bins in the car.

Clothes

Craghoppers jackets with pockets. Photo by Angela Lansbury. I am on the right. The lady on the left is from Craghoppers at a show.

You can buy clothes which are impervious to insects.

But for those parts of you still exposed, insect repellent.

What about an emergency toilet? How about a watering can?

All the big UK supermarkets sell large lidded yogurt pots and soups in lidded containers but these are the ones I used:

Tesco
