Packing for the Retreat

As I'm working tomorrow morning, then packing up and leaving for the retreat, I'll get the blog out of the way now. 

I may as well do this as I pack. 

Clothing: 

  • Dressing gown (as I will live in this over the weekend)
  • Spare bra
  • 3 x knickers
  • Sarong for the Bathing of the Lunatics
  • A pair of socks
  • Pink gumboots
  • Bathers (just in case I want to go down the beach when we're not skinny dipping)
  • Summer pyjamas - not that I ever wear them, but they're good to wear rocking up to breakfast.
For the Trading Table:
  • A couple of tops that might appeal
  • A couple of books I'll never read again but are too good for the street library. 
Witchy Shit:
  • Tarot Cards
  • Candles for the ritual
  • Incense for the ritual
  • Salt
  • Temple Bells
  • Broom
  • Firelighter (as I don't like matches for ritual work - too unreliable)
Writing Gear: 
  • The travel laptop and charger
  • Manuscript
  • New notebook
  • Pen
  • Key drive with a copy of the novel on it. 
  • Computer glasses
Other necessities:
  • Book
  • Computer peripherals / charging cables / wireless mouse
  • Protein powder and shaker
  • Almond Milk
  • Decaf coffee pods / bags
  • Keep cup
  • Yoga mat (that lives in the car)
  • Yeti
  • Turkish Delight (Currency among those in the know)
  • Pillow
  • Knitting
  • Hairbrush and hair clips

Okay, I'm all sorted. Just have to work the morning and then get in the car.
