A lady's handbag is such private and sensitive territory where the eye of man should never set foot.
Indeed it is. But at the risk of sounding like a cad, I just have to ask whether said handbag had a balaclava and a set of rawl plugs in it. (Someone out there might know what I'm talking about.) George, as you well know, a lady never carries rawl plugs in her handbag during the week. Only a pale blue balaclava. Oh bugler! Sorry Tony. Sorry also to George. How could I have got you mixed up?! I must take my balaclava off the next time I am typing.  |

I am not practical person, as a result I don't carry many things that could be useful, but usually find one of my friends have everything with them just in case. If I am alone than I have to do without.
Balachlava can come handy and with age even handier (not to frighten people with my looks).

Milly, I always carry a couple of packs of mud for those unexpected occasions. Which reminds me .....  Mud Pies at Dawn! Or shall we do High Noon? George could sing us in with "Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darling!" (I'm assuming he'll be a bass for the occasion). I think I'd like a lie-in if it's ok with you....except I never get one of course...  |

We will collect somethings from you BobbyZ if we ever meet. Morticiaa has experience now and I will try to learn her technique.

It's an easy mistake to make, Mort. But we're not the same person, even though you've never seen us together at these notorious members' meetings in London. And that could be a dancing pink bear from tp. One with big ears and a long nose. |

Milly, High Noon is fine with me, although the heat may compromise the quality of the mud. Could lead to bruising, and think of the consequent expenditure in concealer sticks! Cripes!!!! |

What (straight) guys would carry in their handbags, should they ever descend to such levels of wussdom as to even contemplate the idea of carrying one: A Swiss army knife. Always the knife. A bottle opener. Pics of girlfriend/ wife plus kids from all relevant relationships. A playstation/ ipod or both. An utterly rancid piece of cloth that may once have been a handkerchief. Three partially-stamped customer-loyalty cards for Cafe Nero (they having forgotten twice that they already had one). A comb (unused). A packet of ibufrofen. Scraps of paper with hastily-written-down phone numbers, the provenance of which will escape them forever. Amusingly themed beer mats which seemed like a good idea to stow away at the time. But I don't. (Have one.)  |

Tony,
Rawlplugs came to mind to me too, so I know what you're ITV playing with.....
For a manbag, you need to add an old packet of mints, a leaky biro, some old pencil shavings and a couple of train tickets from 1973

Ho all !
For Christmas I was given a wacky little torch in the shape of a frog, which I popped into my handag....and, guess what! I actually needed it late on Friday night, walking home from my lift (I'd been to an IMS concert at St.Ives).
It was a miracle that I remembered I had it...that's the thing about handbags, with me at any rate, I just forget what's in it.
The trouble with delicious lip balm is that it is so yummy, one licks it off! Great marketing ploy, but no good for the lips!

I am in a very, very bad mood this morning. I've been awake since 5, never a good start (any other insomniacs out there?), the decorators who were supposed to be coming yesterday couldn't come because of illness, thus messing up my arrangements, and just at this moment I can't think of anything to look forward to. I am TIRED and CROSS.

What you need, Mary, is the calming influence of some yogic flyers:  (just realised this thread is onto its seventy-fifth page! Some serious ranting going on here) |
