Chewbacca?! I can see the headline now.. 'Wookie in bag shock!! Chewey says contents are vital!' Unlike my bag, which hold 'vital' things such as a billion receipts from at least 10 years ago, just in case..
Brill article as usual, Fizzymouse!

Thank you, and I bet Chewie is just like the rest of us and has a pile of rubbish in the bottom of his bag.

Probably!! I probably have more important things in there too, I just can't find 'em! (Mind you if they really were important, I'd make the effort to tidy my bag to find them!!) Maybe I will one day, when I get a spare decade.. Also, is it just me, or does anyone else out there think 'I'll get a smaller bag so I don't carry so much junk around' only to end up with several bags of junk?!

I carry a tiny bag which just about holds the necessities - in fact it doesn't quite hold the necessities, so .................... I bought a sort of bigger man bag type of courier bag - and now I have my handbag in a bigger bag which holds all the stuff that doesn't fit in my handbag. If you see what I mean.
Perhaps I should consider therapy before I buy one of those trolley things to tow my little bag in my bigger bag.

I have a tote bag which I got as a freebie from the shopping centre in Ilford which contains.......
1. 4 (at least!) umbrellas.
2. 3 (at least!) magazines.
3. 1 large box of M&S Shortbread biccies (nearly finished)
And finally (drumroll please....)
The aforementioned small bag with all the receipts in!!! Not surprisingly the tote bag is beginning to split with all the rubbish I force it to carry!
I don't know about you needing to consider therapy, but I definitely do!!
