It occurs to me that a little advice from others on the art of travel (and it is an art if done properly) is always welcome.

(Henry David Thoreau)

I recall a number of backpacking trips with someone who seemed to delight in having 'another ciggarette' before taking his tent down whilst everyone else was packed and ready for the off.
