Do you have a gadget tucked away in there to cope with the eventuality of a thermonuclear explosion?

Tin hat?

Pac-a-shelter?

Couple of months of basic foodstuffs?

A Kindle?

What did the late Lady Thatcher keep in her handbag to frighten off everyone in her circle of influence?

Although I love handbags, in the main I only use 2 - a summer coloured one and a winter coloured one. Unfortunately, 'stuff' does tend to accumulate!

Purse on a chain, credit card wallet complete with bells, phone (which is usually dead), set of car+house keys, a couple of pens, comb, lipstick (never bother re-applying so don't know why its in there) several open packets of tissues, clip-on sunglasses, a plastic carrier bag and probably various cash receipts screwed up at the bottom.

Yes, sometimes it does get heavy which is when I discover last weeks shopping list on the pad, a camera or my kindle!

I change bags frequently so these days don't have time for things to collect in there. for every day shopping etc I use a bum bag, or my purse is in an inner pocket of my coat and in my bag which duplicates as handbag and shopping bag is a bottle of hand gel, a lipstick, paper hankies, a cloth shopping bag and a pen and my house keys. My phone is either in a phone pocket in my coat or in my bag.

Dear All

Hello

Hope you are okay.

This is a question for the ladies and er, maybe the gentlemen!

What do you keep in your handbags?

Do you ever check what's in it?


Take gentle care
With best wishes
Elizabeth, EOS
