    Laptop bag clutter

    I swear mine's worse than Mrs P's handbag.

    Since I'm WFH with everything I 'need' to work on my desk I decided to empty the fecker.

    3 pens and a mechanical pencil
    2 sets of earphones (1 of which I wouldn't put anywhere near my ears now)
    4 pack chewing gum, all part used
    6 Usb sticks
    ipod shuffle
    ipod
    2 ipod cables
    iphone five connector
    2 soft glasses covers
    1 screen cloth
    euro USB charger
    micro usb cable
    2 business cards - not mine
    2 business cards - mine
    2 lanyards
    a visitors lunch pass from somewhere I no longer visit
    an elastic band
    microsd card reader
    £1 + €1.65
    and a shoelace FFS.


    WTF is wrong with me!


    How bad is yours?

    I find the loose change is usually enough to but me lunch on days when I forget my wallet. The pile of pink hair slides and bobbles can be embarrassing in a business meeting.

      Found another pocket

      2 Air France hand wipes and a cable to convert inline microphone & audio into the pink/green jacks.

        You need a manbag.

          I dread to think what lives in my various laptop bags.

          Mainly out of date migraine tablets and some dextrosol. And empty migraine tablet packets.

            I have one of those crumpler neoprene sleeves. No room for loads of tulip in there.
            While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                I am nearly ready to discuss the purple man bag Mrs OG gave me for Christmas.

                  She gave you a Chinese burn of the scrotum?

                    It would certainly be less painful than carrying the 'satchel' around the area of East Leeds I had a contract in at the time.
