For the past few years, I've had a red bag with Eurohike written on it. I bought it after my previous bag was borrowed by my elder daughter for a school trip, used to hold some kind of fruit drink in a leaky bottle, and was duly ruined. This time, though, the bag has simply worn out. There'san inside pouch where I can put passports and the like, and it cam unstitched. I could probably stitch it back, but:
1) That would involve stitching.
2) It's wearing through and will soon be six different kinds of broken anyway.
3) The bag is getting a bit grubby now and would need a lot of work to make it presentable.
4) My suitcase is kinda full and there's not really room to put my bag inside it now.
I decided, therefore, to retire the old bag and get a new one when I return to the UK. I left it in the bin in the hotel room.
Farewell, old friend!
