What will I forget to pack that I might just need?

I'm after some advice/recommendations/reminders of what I need to take with us to Greece next week. We haven't been on a package holiday for years and I'm worried I'll forget something vital.

We went to Florida last year so could easily call into a supermarket but also were in a villa so had plenty of equipment etc to hand. This year shopping will be limited as we are staying in a quiet area of Kefalonia.

What are the things I need to remember?

Thanks

Plasters
Glasses (as in reading)

Cooling wipes.
Bite cream.
Sun cream, can be expensive abroad.
If any of you wear glasses, one of those tiny repai kits with screws etc.
Agree about the jelly shoes to wear in the sea.
Cork screw, simple tin opener.

It's like the conveyor belt on the Generation Game !

Tweezers- my brows seem to sprout all over the place in the sun!
Ditto razors.
Cold sore cream/patches- if the sun causes outbreaks.
Painkillers- for you and kids. Hopefully you won't need them.
Nitty Gritty comb- would be sods law to spot the little blighters and be unable to deal with them.
Drinks bottles to top up from larger water bottles.
Cards.
Toys/books for kids

Swimming goggles if you have a pool & your DC are used to wearing them.

@CremeFresh ha thankfully no need to pack a cuddly toy as the boys are passed that stage!

Some things mentioned that I would never have thought of to be able to even forget them so thank you!

@AdaColeman @FanSpamTastic bottle opener / corkscrew is a great idea!
