Ever since I read HHGttG I began carrying a canvas totebag with "essentials"smiley - erm in it.
Contents:
a pack of pens
lucky charm
single serving cereal in disposable bowl
notebook
a large white beach towel
(end)smiley - magic
I carry this EVERYWHERE school, store, etc.
just in case there is a Vogon Constructor Fleet on it's way to sector ZZ9 plural Z Alpha to turn into a intergalactic bypass.
If you don't carry yours you should really consider it.smiley - cool

I too carry a bag of essentials. mine contains my towel, George, a notebook, some pens, a small travel shower bag, a tin of tea, along with peanuts and beef jerky. This goes EVERYWHERE! I live in Joppatowne, so people tend to stare when they see some chick walking around with this huge bag on her shoulder, and a towel over her head .

smiley - smiley thank YOU for telling me that! makes me feel useful!

you named your towel George!? smiley - biggrin do tell how you came up with that?! smiley - wow

i didnt name my towel... but i always name my car... always a female name cuz i believe in reinCARnation and i think the personnae reinCARnated into cars are females smiley - yikes with bad KARma who are being PUNished by having to spend a lifetime within the confines of the one earthly physicality that they would most abhor...

so i name my cars pretty female names and treat them with gentleness, humor, sensitivity, and understanding.... and give them the occasional flower smiley - smiley

I long to be a hitchhiker and carry my home on my back.
The joy of being penny less and surviving well.
to lose weight but gain muscle.
to feel scared for your existence and be empowered.
To take 10 lifts to guildford then 2 to cardiff.
Hitchhike, you'll be poorer than your mate in mcdonalds but thrice as happier. smiley - dontpanic even at school I have my smiley - towel

I think you have almost all you need... perhaps though you could consider a compact Ray Mear's survival expert (shrunk to fit in your bag) and or Steven Fry, Love love x

wonko the sane

i don't think i have a satcel big enough to carry everyting i'd need!
if i did this is what i'd take with me:
towel (largish and purple)
books x 3 or 4 (HHGTTG, and a few others)
pens
pads
money (just in case though if i was a hitchhiker i wouldn't need much)
mobile
maybe if i was being really organised extra undies (though not if i was just going about day to day)
string (cos you never know when you'll need some string)
an umbrella (a towel only works for so long, eventually it'll be soaked to)
and a jumper (what if i need my towel for something else at the same time see?)

and that would be my entire hitchhiking kit but for day to day stuff i would probably take out some stuff like the raincoat unless it looked like it was actually going to rain. and the jumper to.
