Tickets, Money, Passport?

I've been meaning to do this for a while. More for my own amusement than anything else. I've oft been told I hoard a lot of crap and since movingtotheohtersideoftheworld I have tried to cut back on the crap. Or indeed carp as I originally wrote. Nevertheless I think it's a failed ambition as you can see. I also don't claim to admit to being unique in this. A woman's handbag is after all a sacred thing. Therefore I present to you, dear blog, the contents of my handbag as it is today, unabridged.

What's in the bag? a book, sunglasses, free CD, umbrella, tissues, hand cream, shopping list, glasses (spectacles + case), make-up bag, mini-notepad, mobile phone, work pass, travelcard, nail file, keys, pen, Boots voucher, a clipping from the Guardian Weekend magazine, lip gloss, mobile phone headphones, 3 lipsticks (Clinique - unknown colour name; Clinique #12 Blushing Nude and Benefit - Shania Red - limited edition), 13p, 1 x hairband, 47p worth of stamps, a small vial of perfume (Dior Addict), 2x Rennie.

What's in the make-up bag? * Mascara, Eyeliner, Eye shadow, pencil sharpener.

What's in the purse? Tesco Club card (plus vouchers), Sainsbury's Nectar card, a Visa card, a debit card, Boots card, Union card, another credit card, and another credit card, Matalan card, 3x receipts for the pub, 1 x receipt for the dentist, £10 - note, 4x business cards, another pub receipt, and another pub receipt, Starbucks receipt (for expenses), International phone card, cinema stub - The Aviator, Coffee loyalty card (Coffee@ Goswell Road), cinema stub - Ocean's 12, £7.62 - coins.

*This is the 'emergency makeup bag' the one at home contains the full compliment (read trowel and paste) which I don't carry with me.
