High maintenance

I was suddenly gripped by curiosity this afternoon as to whether or not our car has a spare wheel in the boot. Went outside and slowly cleared out my daughter's clobber to reveal what lay underneath:

* Two complete changes of clothes
* Sunhat
* Peaked cap
* Swimsuit
* Towel
* Leotard
* Sunscreen
* Water bottle
* Hair bands
* Anti-histamine
* Witch hazel
* Plasters
* Wet wipes
* Yoga mat
* Soft blanket
* Sand shoes
* Torch
* Hoodie
* Waterproofs
* Emergency bag of marshmallows

My sole personal.possession in the same car is the CD album Spiceworld, but no working CD player to listen to it on 🙄

How on earth did my parents cope with four girls? 🤔

Found the spare tyre 👍

and the jack..?

"clobber" = junk?, kit?

witch hazel, is that good for insect bites? I have a few recent ones that are somewhat uncomfortable at the moment!

@GerOttman Yes, there's a jack as well . . I watched a youtube video and I think I could do it with a helping hand 🙂

Clobber = kit.

Witch hazel is a plant extract that acts as an antiseptic and anti-inflammatory. We use it mainly to clean cuts and soothe nettle stings. I'm sure it would be good for insect bites.
