    Just as an outside opinion from a guy, I know when I'd be going out away from home, and staying elsewhere, I need my washbag.

    Though some of the items mentioned are a little trivial, but I do like the idea of small first aid kits being mentioned - sounds like the person is responsible and thinking of others and I like that.

    Anyway, back to the trivials, I'd like a girl to carry a small can of hairspray, cremewax, a comb and a little mini hairdryer :D:):cool:

    Usual unidentifiable fluffy things
    and what seeems hundreds of tissues

    These are in every girl's handbags in copious amounts! :D

    BTW, I love this thread! It must be funny for any men reading. But a lot of the stuff we have in our handbags is common amongst all of us.

    For the people who carry around their passport - why do you do this?

    Purse, car and house keys, cheque book, two mobile phones, packet of cigarettes, two cigarette lighters, tiny notebook and pen, spare pen, work ID badge, mirror, lip balm, lipstick, cleaning cloth for spectacles, packet of nurofen, ipod and earphones, Bluetooth headset, sat nav, tin of mints.

    It's a small handbag, downgraded from my "suitcase" size (as a friend called it) and still lots of room in it. I can fill that. :)
