Accessories - things people think we should bring

• Cameras - duh
• Phones - likewise
• Reading material - I hear this worked well for the previous trip, though those there will comment more. It might be sensible to try and arrange to all take things we all haven't read.
  • Members of CUSFS could obtain books from the library, by proxy perhaps
  • Harder to read in cars than trains, so probably not a huge issue. Bring a couple of books and rotate.
    • Indeed, we do not need many books each. Last time we all read every book we had with us.
• Phrasebooks (most likely readily to be obtained from Amazon)
• Guidebooks?

Games

• Bananagrams - Smith
• Travel Scrabble - Smith
• Mahjong - Lmm
• Potentially BSG and/or Roborally, though I could see either getting silly - Lmm
  • We do not have room for such things
  • Don't be silly
  • much as i would like to think roborally would be sensible, alas! for sometimes displaying common sense
  • I don't see why you think we don't have space. They're not all that big, and we will have a car. Obviously we shouldn't go overboard, but a couple of board games should be fine.
    • We need to fit luggage for 7-9 people in the car. There is not room for non-travel games.
• An absence of Risk - Smith
  • Seriously, we do not have room, nor (I would hope) the time for non-travel games. I would suggest cards, travel scrabble, other travel games.

Music

• well i shall bring some, in "compact disc" form or otherwise; that threat should be enough to ensure many other people bring some
• If anyone has more Tom Lehrer than I (viz., "In Concert"), let him speak now &c - Smith
  • We have at least "That Was The Year That Was" as well
• I can bring a recitation of the Koran which should fill a few hours.
