I love reading what’s in my bag type posts, maybe because I just like being nosy but I don’t know. So today I thought I would share what I keep in my everyday bag. I got this backpack from Accessorise many years ago, I love pattern on it. I’m also a big fan of the metal fastenings.
Inside I have:
Phone. A Sansung Note which is so big some people think its a game boy. I have a game boy cover on it which really doesn’t help.
Kindle. I seriously can’t leave my house without a book. So instead of carrying lots of heavy books I take along my Kindle instead. This thing is a lifesaver if I’m bored and waiting for a train. Thats if I remember to keep it charged up.
Purse. I am a massive fan of the Moomins. I saw this purse in a little shop in Bath and had to buy it. I’ve had it for almost three years now and I really don’t know what I’m going to do when the time comes to replace it.
Inhalers. Since my surgery I haven’t had as many problems with my asthma. However I’m still slightly paranoid that I might need my inhalers while out, this means they pretty much come everywhere with me.
Foldaway Bag. The Scottish Parliament recently passed legislation that requires shops to charge 5p for a carrier bag. I use this instead because it saves me from having to pay for a bag.
Sunscreen. Because its Scotland outside.
Socks. For some reason after leaving work one day I took my socks off and put them in my bag. They’ve never left.
Umbrella. Because its Scotland outside.
Lip balm. I really don’t use many lip balms but I like this one from The Body Shop.

Great bag, Emma! Glad to see your Kindle was in there. You would be excommunicated from the ranks of bibliophiles without a book or reader.

Is there a rule somewhere saying that a bibliophile has to be within a certain distance of a book at all times.
Thank you!

Grabbing distance, perhaps?
I read of one guy who confessed that he had formerly thought he would never, ever, own a reader. He succumbed to the thought of carrying hundreds of books around in his hip pocket.

Yes. Maybe even a bit closer.
Ereaders are great. But I prefer having an actual book. The thing I love most about them is I no longer have to print out fanfiction if I want to read it away from a computer. You have no idea how many trees that has saved.

A very brave post! Even though people accuse me of being somewhat of an exhibitionist, I don’t think I’d ever, never ever, have the courage to dump out the contents of my bag for all the world to see! I probably don’t even really want to know myself!

The stuff I have in my bag is pretty much the same stuff anyone else would have in their bag. None of the things I have in there are that important to me, its just stuff I own.

Beautiful post!!!! I am not that bold to reveal what’s in my bag. I don’t need most items in there, but I can’t seem to not go out without them. I wonder if there is a term for that.

I never believe these posts. Where is the lint and random bobby pin? My bag is just about 100% those two items. Plus a wadded up dollar bill and spare keys.

I didn’t have any dust or bobby pins but there was a big pile of used bus tickets that went straight into the bin.
