Pack up your troubles

Some frantic last minute packing on Friday night left tempers a little frayed but we were both fine in the morning.
The amount of stuff we need to take with us for just one night away is astounding:

2 buggies for the twins
9 changes of casual clothes - 3 each for the kids
6 changes of smart clothes - 2 each for the kids
1 suit for me
1 dress for my wife
2 changes of casual clothes for my wife and me
Lots of shoes
Assorted toiletries
Lots of nappies and baby wipes
Wedding gift
small collection of toys to keep the twins quite during the ceremony
Snacks and drinks for the car journeys
Medicines for the kids and us, just in case

...and so on and on

This isn't a wedding, it's an expedition.
