Jason Oh wallet (http://www.rawdice.co.uk/images/products/johorange80y356vni.jpg) – for train ticket, oyster card, business card and key credit card (fits in front jean pocket so better than full wallet)
Full Jack Spade wallet (how many receipts!)
Taxi receipts
Council tax bill (unpaid…ooops)
Very cool notebook from Magma in Holborn (seriously cool bookshop/magazines/comics)
Wired magazine
iPad
iPhone (yes I’m a Mac man!)
Cables (gadget for sharing headphones on a device, headphones, unknown cable)
Keys
Duller pen, pencil, disposable fountain pen
Coins… 50p £2, 10p, 2p, 1p (why do we still have anything under 20p is a mystery to me)
Anti-histamine, nasal spray, eye drops… it’s hayfever season
Tissues!
Glasses
Sunglasses

… and the only reason its only this lot is cos I just emptied it of trash!

And now the good news… I’m such a Jack fan I can tell you they are now supplied by http://www.rawdice.co.uk

Favourite Jack bag…

(beautiful interior, IPhone fits in outside compartment, fits full laptop, plus ton of papers — for business it’s still cool)

It’s a backpack. Not sure if it qualifies. What’s more, the contents give no great insight into me, or how you should pack a bag. I should be dragging half of this around.

FRONT POCKET:
Sunglasses (in their ballistic nylon protective pouch)
Earbud headphones(again, safely in their little bag)
Wallet
Phone
Keys
Loose change
Paw Paw cream (it’s winter as I write)
Bonjela (couldn’t tell whether my lips were cracking or I was getting a mouth ulcer)
Screwed up piece of tissue paper.

MAIN COMPARTMENT:
Umbrella
Plastic folder full of admin stuff that I haven’t attended to, inside another plastic bag in case it rains.
Waterproof bag containing hard drive, pencil case and notebook.
Spare waterproof bag (those rinky dink ones you get from the camping shops)
2 x Hats (forgot that the first one was packed)
Spare jumper
Jacket (it is cold)
Product brochure for some sound equipment I’m unlikely to ever buy (NEXO PS2 system in case you’re interested)
Mandarin pip (x2).

I think my wife sent me this link because of my bag obsession.

It’s nice and spacious. I could go around wearing it in ANY outfit. I mean any. I could go formal with a suit or go casual and it even goes well with shorts!

I know this is a lot of stuff to carry around but I am a full time student who commutes to school and I also work full time so I spend little time at home. It is nice to have some of the comforts of home with you at all times just incase I have to crash overnight at a friends house/dorm(happens often).

I’ve posted on my other sites but have been prone to blog inertia there too.

Time to get posting again. After all, it is fun. Are you blogging?

I liked the man-bag exercise back in 2008! I just posted my own man-bag contents. It was quite fun just listing them. Hope Feb 2009 wasn`t your `last post`!

And my reading glasses. And rail tickets and documents for an advertising judging trip to Nottingham in August.
