Why do people all have identical black fabric suitcases? It's an invitation to have everyone else who has one to pull it up, check it, and then dump it violently back on the carousel.
I went to some effort to get my new suitcase. Two weeks before I left, I found a really nice polycarbonate Delsey suitcase at Dressmart in Te Rapa, but they only had them in pink. They said they were getting more in. They didn't. They said they had other branches in Auckland and Christchurch - both places I was going to be within the week - but they didn't know where they were. They called them to ask but never got an answer.
Tried lots of other leads, to no avail. It looked like pink or nothing, until I found exactly what I wanted - in a little non-franchised suitcase store I found while walking down George Street in Dunedin with MY MUM. Turns out I had to go about as far south as I could before I could get my travelling companion for the north.
