After I came back from holiday I had the undesirable task of unpacking everything, washing all the clothes and putting stuff away (in fact I’m still doing it now). Normally I have to keep the suitcases under the bed. As you all probably know suitcases are pretty hefty things to store, and in my case, under the bed was the only practical place for them. It’s hardly the most efficient use of space however, so I’ve decided to use them as storage. My partner’s suitcase is used to store the large collection of shoes she never wears but refuses to part with, while mine is used to store all the jumpers and thick coats we have that are no use during the Summer. Ok, when I go on a holiday I will have to take them all out again, but if you are like me and are only likely to go on a big holiday with a suitcase once or twice a year, I wouldn’t consider it a problem. After all, it’s only a five minute job to take everything out as you pack, and then put it all back in again when the holiday is over. You are going to be miles away getting sunburnt, so it doesn’t really matter if you pile the stuff up in a corner for a few days :)
