baby, what's in that satchel?

because we loos never do things by halves, parents went out to buy the most amazing thing ever in the whole wide world, so we can pack all fragile items away in the safest funnest way possible. and so, ladies and gentlebugs, i present to you ..

BUBBLE WRAP !!!



yes folks, standing at more than 1m tall, is the purest roll of bubble-wrap you've ever seen. squillions of little magical pockets filled with air just waiting to burst out of their plasticky skins and dance in the atmosphere with you! o happy bubble-wrap.

it's taking a great deal of self-restraint not to run up to that thing and squeeze the hell out of it. well .. self-restraint brought on by warnings along the lines of "don't you DARE pop that i'm telling you .." in that ominous voice that only your mother can achieve.

if there's any left after the move, i'll try convincing the parentals to let us host a bubble-wrap party.
