@SimonLLewis We like pens and paper, stickers, lots of fruit and audio books for the train... and a ball for when you arrive! Unfortunately we usually also need sick bags, a change of clothes, wipes, and some sweets for bribery

I’m off inter-railing round Europe with my 5 yr old, starting on Saturday. Two weeks of adventure! Any old hands at this, give wisdom. What does this father, daughter and expedition-size rucksack team need to know? Obscure things to bring?
