Is there something you can’t leave the house without (assuming you’re fully clothed as most people would)?
Keys, wallet, purse, bank card?
I used to take my purse with me everywhere. It had everything in it. I got in the habit of holding my keys in my hand when I left my purse in a car that drove off one day.
These days, many people just take a bank card with them. There are electronic controls for doors and house locks. Everything else like food can be gotten at the destination.
The square thing is a usb rechargeable LED torch/strobe.
It really is quite bright, the first time I turned it on I was holding it close to my face inches away from my eyes, never again!
The glasses are just a spare pair in case I lose or break the ones I’m wearing.
Nice! I have two usb rechargeable lanterns that I use every day, just indoors. I also have a battery lantern that I use occasionally and use rechargeable batteries in. When it runs down, I just change out the batteries.
Apart from the obvious (money, keys, phone, bus pass), I add a bottle of water, tissues, pen or pencil, paper, my diary, a map of my town, snacks, usually in the form of some biscuits, crisps or sweets, hand cream, lip balm, a blister pack of pain killers, a few plasters, a RADAR key for a disabled toilet.
Tissues and water do make the bag heavy, as do the coins. But I like to be well prepared, as you can see!
