Shoes
A few years ago I went to Vienna for a long weekend. I had a ticket for the opera and Vienna is a smart place so I needed to take some smart shoes. I have two identical pairs of decent black shoes and decided to take just one pair.

(I think you can see where this is going.)

Move forward to the evening of the opera. Freshly showered, suit on, tie on, I open my suitcase to get shoes only to remove two left ones.

Had to buy a new pair...
...in rather a hurry!

I’ve done that. Spent the evening trying not to walk like a penguin.

yeah, but that wasn't because of the shoes now was it?

Two identical pairs?
To me that souds more loony than packing the wrong ones. Why on earth would you need two identical pairs of shoes on the go at once? Wouldn't it make more sense to keep one pair boxed untilnthe oter wore out?
