 Soft
Blanket and Inflatable neck pillow from www.travelsmith.com
The cloud-soft fleece neck pillow unzips to reveal a generous
(36"x 60") double-faced fleece blanket that surrounds you (and
only you!) with heavenly softness and lightweight warmth. There's
even a thoughtfully placed pocket at the bottom in which to
nestle your feet. The pillow can be inflated to precisely your
preferred level of firmness. Blanket and pillow cover can be
washed and dried by machine. |

Porta plug and Magilite Torch

just in case. And a torch for when the lights go out. Armed
with these two pieces of equipment your toilette can be conducted
in a manner to which you are accustomed. |
