Answer:
Packing is a story about three friends who are getting ready to go for a journey. It follows the
packing session of three friends, Jerome, Harris, and George. Thus, it begins with them starting the
most important thing of a journey, packing! This story is an extract taken from Three Men in a
Boat by Jerome K. Jerome. Jerome is the narrator himself and writes about the experience he has
while his friends decide to start packing. Further, it takes us on a hilarious ride about three adults
who struggle to do a basic thing as packing. It will take you through the nuisances they experience in
addition to their dog, Montmorency’s contribution. Similarly, it also shows how his other two friends
are not that great when it comes to packing.
As Jerome, Harris, and George are ready to set out on a journey, they start packing for it. Being the
narrator, Jerome describes how the packing experience went. We can see that Jerome is quite
confident with his packing skills as he handles it all alone. While in reality, he wishes to simply
supervise the packing session while making his friends do the work under him. However, they listen
to him and let him handle it all by himself, while they sit and relax. This does not impress Jerome;
nonetheless, he gets to it.
Finally, after a long packing session, he packs the bag up while his friends watch him quietly do all
the work. Soon, Harris tells him about the shoes that he did not pack and Jerome will have to reopen
the bag to make space for them. Thus, after learning about the shoes, Jerome remembers his
toothbrush which he did not pack. In order to find it, he empties the whole just for one toothbrush.
Alas, he finds it inside a boot and packs the bag again.
After that, we see that one more query arises for the soap by George. Consequently, this irritates
Jerome so much that he does not pay heed to it and packs the bag anyway. However, to his mistake,
he has to reopen it again due to his spectacles being locked inside the bag. This packing session
finally concludes at 10 o’clock.
So, we see that after taking such a long time to pack, Jerome’s other two friends pack the hampers
themselves to show him how it’s actually done. However, they are also similarly gawky and break
many things including a cup into pieces. Further, they squash tomatoes and tread on butter while
also smashing the pies. In addition, there is salt flying here and there during this process. Thus, after
much chaos, they try to put things back in order.
However, it is not as successful as their pet dog, Montmorency, worsen things. He sits on things
meant to be packed and climbs into the jam as well as crushes lemons as if they were rats. But,
finally, the final packing ends at around 12:50 in the night. After a tiring packing session, they decide
the time to get up for the next morning and George dozes off before engaging in this conversation.
In the end, Jerome and Harris mark 6:30 as the wake-up time and go off to sleep.
Conclusion-
To sum up, Packing summary, we learn how packing can also be a tedious task, if not done correctly,
and that life is always better with friends
Jerome was very proud of his packing so he offered to do the packing task on which other two friends agreed. Both friends relaxed, but the narrator's intention was different. According to him, both would do packing task under his direction. The narrator hated other people relaxing while he was working....
