    So, bags at dawn. Choose your weapon - the tote bag or the rucksack? Don't forget to nominate your seconds. Now would it then be 10 paces and turn or 8 beats and spin?

    towel
    spare shirt
    vocab cards
    cd player
    'music' (if DJ Robbie counts as music )
    dental kit
    Book 1 - Grincing for Dummies
    Book 2 - The Force of Labour
    Book 3 - Russian dictionary
    Russian news article - WAKE UP!
    Lipsyl(tm)
    Can of tinned tomatoes (didn't unpack properly )
    1 orange, eating, for the use of.

    There, on topic, so DS can't shout at me.

    H'Hay Baby!
    What's in the dental kit? A spare tooth?
    Oh, and your book should've been Grincing XP
    And as for tinned tomatoes, hun, how can you pack properly a can of tommies in your dance bag?

    Oh, and you didn't say can opener? Do gorillas just bite the tops off?

    Spooky . I keep a topic-in-a-sock in my bag - "what has a hazelnut in every smack round the head?"

    Can you still buy topics ?

    Don' think so...........................probably changed name, shape and direction.................just like a thread here. Start on one topic and move on to god knows what.

    Probably means a topic is now a pint of milk or a cheese sandwich and will no doubt be re-invented as a topic again quite soon

    Re: The Bag Thing

    Times move on, and bag contents change I just happened upon this ancient thread, and it occurred to me, one of the main changes in contents is the sheep, there are probably 2 or 3 sheep now lurking in that dance bag, and that is after the occasional clearout of the flock, where new homes have had to be found. Little did I realise what would result from choosing a moniker here, I never look a gift sheep in the mouth! (I wonder if the Elephant man had this problem?)

    So I was wondering, what are those momentos/mascots/personal items that people have to take with them, along with the useful stuff?

    I keep taking two identical pairs of black and white shoes, one pair is about 5 years older than the other and much more comfy - but they keep needing field repairs with superglue to hold the soles on. And those soles are a bit shiny, even when I've wire brushed them. And the white isn't very - come to think of it, neither is the black So, the old pair are actually pretty useless and I haven't worn them for ages - but they are comfortable

    But it's all very tedious really, and simply relates to the "humourous" sheepy t-shirts (usually there's a spare one in the bag), bought for me by Mrs Sheepy while living in Ireland, and worn when dancing.

    Since then, the sheep's time has come! The sheep are everywhere, stuffed, vibrating, birthday cards, keyrings, hats, you name it, there is even a "sheepworld" and several sheep shops! And to top it all, a few weeks ago I was given a (serious) book, I got to page 4 and found several references to the "Sheep Man." The friend who gave it to me had no idea.

    Oooooh, I've been lucky so far! No monkies in my bag. Not even my "Caution - Dancing Monkey" t-shirt, as that has been kidnapped by my ex boyfriend..... However, he has told me he's bought me a monkey t-shirt from a shop in Carnaby Street, called something like "the Drunken Monkey" (???). Apparently it was the "I saw this and thought of you" scenario.... Huh.... Me no drunken monkey!!

    So, total lack of monkies or other primates in my bag, and the rather boring contents is normally:

    2-3 spare t-shirts (depending on the event)
    asthma inhaler (salbutamol)
    epi-pen (adrenaline - the only almost exciting item in my bag!!!)
    chewing gum
    deodorant (mini)
    towel
    2 pairs of dance shoes
    electric fan (no longer working)
    spare batteries
    bits of paper with peoples phone numbers and e-mail
    milky buttons
    deo wipes
    safety pins
    used bus tickets
    bottle of water

    ............ and that's it, really. No mascots, no pets, and no exciting items at all.... Sigh....

    I hope one's bag contents isn't a reflection of one's life or personality!!!!! In that case I need to work on making it more exciting!!!!!!

    I have a total minimalist approach to these things: 1 plastic bag, usually Tesco's, containing:
    - deodorant
    - towel
    - 1+ spare T-shirts
    (admittedly, I seem to have a lot of junk in my pockets, which is where men seem to have the advantage over women - why do women's trousers lack pockets?)

    Basically, I never leave anything I would miss, mainly because of paranoia about stuff being taken. Although I have to say, I've never lost anything in a MJ venue. "Lost" stuff at salsa a few times though, so I guess that's where I get the habit from.
