bagginsmum, what aren't they for - our kids are older now, but Mrs B still has wetwipes in bag for quick clean after loo visit if no taps working (common in small aires), clean up after picnics, ice cream etc. Wipe down of picnic plates before putting back in car
You name it!

I can't use wet wipes for anything other than arses because the smell of wet wipes just reminds me of dirty arses. The idea of wiping down a picnic plate with one is awful.

I had rather the same reaction.  I could just about face using one to wipe hands after doing snow chains. I have lots of little bottles of that "handwash" stuff but often struggle, nevertheless, to find one just when I want one. My car always has at least one toilet roll handy, too.

Ear plugs - to muffle snoring drunkards or ski-boot parties in the upstairs apartment.

I've managed to miss breakfast sleeping with ear plugs. It worked too well.

Nowt wrong with using wet wipes for dirty plates before putting them away ...it's using them as toilet paper that seems odd to me!

Sharkymark and I had to almost kick a door down because Kelv1n was happily cocooned in beer and earplugs.

Hat.
These days of helmets, easy to forget woolly hat, but can get right chilly in the evening when sauntering out to bar or restaurant.

There always seem to be ski boot parties upstairs, even in places where people are asked not to wear them indoors

Oh good! That's why those wicker picnic baskets are so impractical - what do you do with the mucky plates and cutlery after your picnic? Even after the baby wipe treatment you wouldn't want to slot the knives you've used to spread the salmon paté back in their dear little straps would you?

I love my wicker picnic basket but it hardly gets used.

I inherited one from my mother in law (not that she's dead). We tried it a few times for picnics but really it doesn't work. But it turned out to be exactly the right size, with its lid taken off, to sit on top of a cupboard, out in my apartment, and hold all the tea-towels and hand towels (I have loads, as I use several each day). It looks good and works much better than it ever did as a picnic basket. I use insulated bags for picnics - much more practical. I throw the dirties into a polythene bag.

Standard gloves in the car for keeping hands warm when you are packing up to go home in the freezing cold.

bagginsmum, we were in Obergurgl last month, cash used on the mountain for lunch and coffees. Card used in the one restaurant we ate out in, and the ski shops all take cards.
Packing wise agree with most of others, we use a 4 bar extension on one adapter, it's cheaper and fairly light ( in my boot bag ! ) A hat and sunglasses for eating lunch outside if it's warm enough, my head still feels the chill.

Boot dryer. Seriously! My feet were always cold and numb until I realised that it was because my liners were wet (yes, my feet sweat uncontrollably, the rest of me is bone dry). Boot dryers were a revelation! When I forgot mine, I lasted one day without. Then I bought a new set. I didn't care how much they were - couldn't put a price on warm dry feet.
