I found some calico pillow cases in the sale at Ikea yesterday, price 39p each. i've just spent a happy twenty minutes coding them all up by printing things like "Undies" or "Tops" on them with some old fabric pens, in different colours. BTW a handy tip when camping is to have a specific code colour for everyone and use it for repeated things like sponge bags, holdalls or indeed marking up calico pillow cases. DD is pink, DS is green, Hubby is red and I'm blue. Makes life that tiny bit more simple.

Can't help but laugh at the 'I wear my jeans twice' comment. I feel really manky now.

Me too!! Twice!! I wear the same pair of three quarter length trousers for most of the week!

excellent :)

i am a great believer in colour coding, although it is something i have grown out of the habit of since i stopped work :( but when we go camping i do put his stuff in the strong coloured bags and mine in the pastel pinks :)

we are miles from ikea but i do love their blue bags. Still no zips though. Zips rule for me for packing clothes. I can't be doing with them spilling out.

and i am a clean everything every day person which is a habit soooo hard to break!
