Reply to: Thinking of getting a man bag

[ThomasSoerensen]

The only bag for a man is a Halliburton - and it should be habdcuffed to the carrier.

Oh, for a split second I thought this thread was about "man bugs". There don't seem to be many that are specific to men, unlike women.

Day 2. Have ditched tupperware solution as got some pittying looks on train last night. Today I am sporting an old rucksack, it certainly is a comfy way to carry your lunch to work and has bonus of peeps giving me a wide berth on train due it to being my old fishing bag so has hooks sticking out of it and stinks of old ragworm (bugg*ered if I can find it).

Mr P has a man bag, He carries his wallet, wonderswan, PSP, books, fags and various bits of detritus in it. - No sarnies, he buys them from Boots.
Nothing wrong with them IMHO

So he's pretty and he caries a manbag. 'Nuf sed.

Can we take it he is good with soft furnishings and puts together a nice flan?

I wish! Although he did do a nice stir fry last night

On me - yes, not on Mr P, he needs no decoration

You would say that, you're a girl. So you may as well say wearing eye liner and a bit of lippy and earrings and rather high heels are all fine too.

Any advice on man bags? Due to economic downturn I am thinking about making my own sarnies rather than spending an arm and leg at Pret, M&S etc. and need something to bring them to work in.

I have an old briefcase but that is so 1970, my rucksack is too over-spec'd for commuting and carrier bags look a bit trampy. Can 40+ year olds use those messenger style bags without people sniggering behind their back?

answers on a postcard..........

Xeno, you're back

How have you been?

What you need is a proper picnic hamper.

When you're ready to eat simply layout a rug and tuck in.

For extra authenticity you could release some wasps or set off the sprinkler system.

This one should do the job and it's only £13.20
