    One of these: Wenger 600638 IBEX 17" Laptop Backpack , Triple Protect compartment with iPad/Tablet / eReader Pocket in Blue {25 Litres}

    I use one of these as my "mobile office". Loads of space, comfortable and lightweight and very sturdy.

    I've been happy with my North Face one. It's stoop up to daily use and abuse for 3 years or so thus far.

    I prefer a backpack when I’m travelling, leaves your hands free and is more balanced/comfortable than a shoulder bag.

    It’s also about having space to be used for overnight/2 night trips where I don’t want/need hold luggage, and I’d prefer not to take 2 bags in the cabin or use a wheelie bag.

    I don't have a proper laptop bag/rucksack anymore, I'm currently using a Burberry handbag a friend picked up for me in a recent sample sale (90% off retail!).

    Used to be a big fan of Samsonite but now I prefer Delsey. Tumi are good too.

    I’ve seen a lot of them around.
    On one client site, there were about 5 in the office, which put me off them a bit - I don’t want to pick up the wrong bag and only discover it when I try to go through passport control.
    I want something that looks a bit more casual but can work as an overnight bag.

    When it’s time to fly under the radar, there’s no better way to transport your gear than with our Executive Range Bag. You’ll confidently – and efficiently – carry five handguns, spare magazines, laptop/tablet, ammo, soft targets, safety gear, shooting accessories and more all without attracting unwanted attention.

    Hire an unemployed Brexiteer to carry your personal belongings.
