When I take a flight I am always surprised at the amount of luggage some holiday makers need to take. In November having boarded my flight to bkk I saw two ladies coming up the aisle wheeling large suitcases. They did not have the strength to place them in the overhead locker so being the sort of guy I am I did it for them. They were heavy so I remarked “good I do weight training” and “are you emigrating to Thailand ?’. They replied “oh no just a three week holiday - you should see the bags we have checked in”. My checked in bag is around 10 kg and I only take a small back pack on board.
