Blogfest – the last minute night before packing list

Panic!

No, I don’t need to pack panic, I’m having one. The day seems to have evaporated, and I’m not ready!

Right, OK. I have clothes. (New shirt!) Will be wearing my gorgeous Hotter Shoes, as they are comfortable and practical and just all round the best shoes I’ve had in absolutely ages. (Will attempt to add a pic in the morning.)

Tech bits – bringing my netbook so that I can do stuff on the roundtable if necessary. External power pack in the form of RAVPower® Luster Mini 3000mAh Portable Charger Lipstick-Sized External Battery Pack (I have the rather lovely gold version pictured left). This is a review item that I didn’t get to review at the time it arrived (I think I was in a field!) so good to give it an outing now. It charges much faster than previous external packs I’ve had, but on the downside it does get hot when charging, so I use the handy attached clip to hang it off the outside of my bag.

I also have a cunning little Nomad chargekey which is unbelievably cute. (I’m fairly sure I have a referral code for that somewhere. Must find it.)

I might stick the Kindle HDX in as well. Depends on whether I find the wheeled suitcase – difficult as everyone else has gone to sleep 🙁

Book for the train. Another book for bookcrossing during the day.

Brain. Must not forget brain.

Business cards!

Toiletries. Change of clothes for next day. Night clothes.

Have I forgotten anything? Oh yes, tube map and Oyster card. Oh, and where are we going?

See (some of) you tomorrow!

How I Can Help

After 20+ years of home educating my four children (two now adults), I’ve gathered a wealth of experience that I’m passionate about sharing. Beyond blogging and guest writing, I offer several services designed to support families on their home education journey.

Resources to Support Your Home Ed Journey

I’ve put together a collection of resources that I’ve genuinely found useful over the years—things that have actually made a difference in our home education.
