Last week I found myself at the Virgin Atlantic check-in desk next to Paris Hilton.
What was striking about her was not the fact that she was attempting to travel incognito on a winter Saturday morning wearing big sunglasses and her head buried inside a hoody top (though she was sporting a Paris Hilton t-shirt!) No, the bizarre thing was that she had 16 separate pieces of luggage. Like, er, 16 - as she might say: Hello?
What in god’s name could you have that would need 16 bags? (Mostly rubbish bags too - not a Louis Vuitton to be seen.) - from TravelMail - the Daily Mail of London’s travel section
