Giraffe Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 ...you're packing to return home from a trip to the US and one of your suitcases is full of books and your MIL eyes the suitcase and you suspiciously and says "I think you might be a bit overweight with that one...."! Fingers crossed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcadia Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Good Luck. Some of the counter staff are very kind hearted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lewelma Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 I typically return with 100 pounds of books and supplies. We bring very little with us, so we can load up coming back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giraffe Posted August 25, 2013 Author Share Posted August 25, 2013 Well, DH weighed the suitcase at exactly 50 pounds so he made me put a couple back. Checked in at 49 pounds. Whew!! On the plane now,whisking our way back across the Pond. Terribly amused that it's suddenly ok to use wi-fi on planes now and I choose to catch up with you ladies while DD plays pinball on the in-flight system.
