He’s going to Portugal with 4 mates.
He's got T-shirts, shorts, trunks.
SPF, deodorant, shower gel,
Printing out boarding passes later.
Is there anything glaringly obvious they he’s forgotten?
Lots going on at home right now so I haven’t been on the ball 100%.

Saint Christopher’s medal and his rosary beads!!!

If he gets locked out on a balcony, stay there, don't climb to another one.

Thanks everyone for all the suggestions, he’s well on his way to the airport now.

I hope he has a great time!

Hope he has a great time and doesn't misjudge when to get back to the airport like my DS has....have had to buy him an airline ticket for later on this afternoon to get him home with another airline 🙄 if only he had listened and started travelling over to the airport last night ...it's his costly mistake.

No we definitely did when he was relaxing with a beer outwith the city he was meant to be flying home from! We told him to get going but he " no, got loads of time, it's fine ". Ha!

It's his own savings that have bailed him out. Think he has learned a harsh lesson tbh.

MonkeyTennis34 · 24/06/2025 16:58

He definitely has!

Condoms?

Pretty sure an 18 year old knows how and where to buy a packet of johnnies

Do mums tell their daughters to take condoms.

She asked if he had forgotten anything I was merely making a suggestion
