Stevo985 Posted August 11, 2014 Author VT Supporter Share Posted August 11, 2014 Serious question chaps. What the hell do you use as a bag for work? I'm trying desperately hard to find something that a) isn't ghey b} looks reasonably smart and c) isn't ghey. In all honesty, i'm failing miserably. Pockets. If it can't fit in my trouser pocket then i don't take it. Front left - phone Front right - train pass / work id fob / apartment key fob back left - mp3 player back right - wallet SortedI would agree in most situations. But as somebody who takes lunch to work, that doesn't quite work. I can't take 2 chicken breasts and a bowl of pasta in my pockets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

troon_villan Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 mp3 & wallet in back pockets? Thief fodder. Not to mention risk of damage when sitting down. Wallet is in a button down pocket (naff all money in there anyway!) Mp3 is in my hands when sitting on train ... back pocket when walking from train station and then on my desk in the office. If you bought a bag to carry your lunch you would save a fortune in the long run on eating out 15 or 16 times a week... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob182 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 This is like mine, but mine's black and Umbro. Umbro messenger bags are very common, except for mine has about 6 safety pins across the end of the zip. Not because I'm trying to look punk or creative, but because the zip broke, and I had to cut the bag open to get the zip off, put it back on properly and the safety-pin it back together to stop the zip flying off the hole I had cut (...maybe I should buy a new one? But then I wouldn't look so punk and creative! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodgyknees Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Anybody had problems with fraud on their bank account before? I had nearly £500 taken out last week and the bank said it would be credited within 48 hours but it hasn't gone back in. I might need to call them tomorrow. I've had so many problems with Natwest, last straw now, have already opened a Barclays account because of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They told me to tell the police and get a crime number, then fill out a form. Got it back in a few days. Your bank should sort it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they'd said two working days, it might make more sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
