Packing

According to official pamphlet from the university, am constrained to taking only one 50lbs-or-less luggage piece in transit from Heathrow to Leicester. Impossible as hair product must weigh at least 20lbs alone due to nasty bird's nest syndrome inherited by unknown ancestor. Lovely, obliging mother put in rare advice for a full speed ahead, torpedos-be-damned attitude and encouraged bringing two suitcases, as former students at informational session called said rule poppycock, balderdash and fiddle faddle. Think some of them have too much of the revolutionary spirit that put us at odds with England in first place.

Will stay the course and instead cram lovely shirts and pants into tiny hot-dog size shapes, as rolling was deemed the best possible solution by thoughtful elder sister. Definitely no revolutionary spirit on her account... experience at Oxford must have had some effect on intellect and respect for strict guidelines.
