When I was working my bag contained the following
Purse,keys,office keys,bus pass, inhaler, other meds Inc painkillers, sewing kit, multi tool like a penknife but with screwdrivers etc. Phone, bleep, pens,notebook, small jar of coffee, lunch, chocolate,small first aid kit, mini watercolour box, tiny pad of watercolour paper, small camera phones didn't have them back then. A book, a second book if the first one was nearly read. Tissues, spare tights, and a couple of tena lady. A small perfume, make-up bag, and hair brush. No wonder I needed painkillers. I was retired six months before I could stand up straight again
