Off on a Spree


Magnus can tell that something is up. There are piles to be sorted and passports to be located.  You see,  I'm off on a spree, visiting an old friend in Boston and then meeting up with Mary Jane for a mini road trip and some serious knitting time.  Although I can't wait to go, I do have some questions:


 1. Can you ever take too much knitting on holiday?



2. Am I being paranoid to want to take pictures of my socks before I go in case they get lost over the Atlantic and I have to claim BIG on the insurance?




3. Could I put my socks in my hand luggage? All of them? Where would I put my books, my wallet, my passport?

4. Why is the cat sitting on my travel insurance documents? What does he know about the risk to my socks?




5. Where is my passport?

I think Magnus just doesn't want you to go...
Bon voyage ~ your holiday sounds like it's going to be wonderful. =)

Have a wonderful trip! I'd be more worried about the socks too. A wallet can be replaced, but custom knit socks??

Your wash-line picture should be the cover of a knitting book, btw.

Have a great trip! Boston is a great deal of fun. And if you're in the mood for real rusticating, check out Maine. There's a lot of fun to be had here in the States.

Wonderful! Give MJ a cuddle for me and save some room in your backpack for a project started over there with some US yarn... always nice!

Hope that you and the socks all made it to the same spot and in good time. It was a very wonderful mystery story about "What Magnus Thought". He really wanted to be packed with your hand luggage, yes?

Have fun on your vacation!
