I found this 15 year old thread earlier
www.mumsnet.com/Talk/other_subjects/13263-what-s-in-your-bag?pg=2&order=
There's lots of cheque books and Filofaxes in people's bags. Two things you wouldn't find very often now.
What do you think people have in their bags now which we will be thinking is old fashioned in 15 years time?
