Amazing what they hold and bonus to be so light Jude. The big one is way to big  for me but the price was right!  I have packed the small red one for a two week trip to New Zealand. It weighs a total of under 7 kilos with room to spare and no checking luggage. Win win.

You travel so lightly Gert, I don't know how you do it - especially for a 2 week getaway.

Nobody cares if you wear the same thing every day Judy. A change of undies  is good though.LOL!  If I need something I can buy it.

I agree we usually do Europe with a backpack each and that's it.... extra benefit is the kids and grandkids know that's how we travel and no way we can bring back anything much - well unless its jewellery for me :)

The lovely Australia Post parcel delivery man came with today. Thanks Katiej. I hope you don't mind me being a copy cat. "Dough" is still coming.

Ooh! No work round here for the rest of the day. I have copied Katie again( thank you) and Book Depository sent me this. It was only a week in coming.
With a lovely bookmark too.  This one has a CD in as well.

I hope you enjoy the books Cookie. 
Both my Dough and Crust books have CD's in them.  One day I might find the time to watch them!
Its nice how the Book Depository always send you a bookmark.

Those books look interesting Cookie, be interested to hear what you think of them. 

Gert, I don't know whether this is what you are looking for. I did purchase some things from them a few years back.  I think they will take credit card over phone from memory.
