What's in your glove box?

[startalovetrain]

Inspired by a soon to be deleted thread where a variety of odd items were found in a husbands glove compartment.

Not too odd considering I have a pair of scissors, a tea towel, half a dairy milk Oreo (will soon be snaffled), 2 tins of the pink Vaseline lip balm and a roll of white bin bags in mine. What's in yours?!

Car manual, bag for life, pen, sellotape, generic blank card for when I forget a birthday etc, plasters, bag of change for parking, Starbucks gift card for when I fancy going through the drivethru but don't have my purse

Calpol
4 sets of sun glasses
Baby wipes
A small mini car
Various pens and hair bands

Car handbook and service record, key for the locking wheelnut, several parking permits which allow me to park in different resident bays throughout the town and at both local hospitals and that's about it.

The boot though:

20 CD's and my MOT certificate!

In my centre consol - 1/2 pack of extra strong mints.

Behind seat - 2 baseball caps - convertible car.

Latex gloves (if there is a traffic accident/animal injured)

That reminds me. I don't have the gloves but I also have a filled syringe in my glove box to put an animal down if necessary should I find one with unsurvivable injuries.

Locking wheel nut, pen and emergency knitting project.

Car manual
Sat nav
Sat nav charger
Random other cables/chargers (what they charge, I have no idea)
Torch
Bottle of water

Locking wheel nut thingy and £1 for the trolley in the little holder in the dashboard.

In the boot I have jump leads, de-icer, screen wash, scraper, car shampoo & a sponge - god knows why, I use car washes - hi viz jacket, warning triangle, tow rope and a bag of Ikea tea lights. One of those things is not like the others...

I have to go clear mine out, dh made me watch the Top Gear episode where Richard Hammond drive the MX5...same version as mine and he was waxing lyrical about all the research done to improve the car without spoiling the weight and aerodynamics

"shaving 87g from the weight of the rear view mirror, buy two packets of crisps from the garage and you have buggered it all up" says Hammond

Dh guffaws and ponders out loud about the scarves, hats, makeup multiple sunglasses, emergency specs, sun cream, phone holders and wires and then says I do not deserve such a lovely car if I am going to treat it like a TatShop.

I said he wasn't allowed in it any more! That would save me more than 85g :o

but it does need a tidy

Car service book
Spray and cloth for the sat nav
Packet of wipes

Only the manual and the charging thing that goes in the cigarette lighter. But I only bought the car a week ago, give it time and it’ll be filled with all manner of detritus.

Mine used to have a CDs, sunglasses and a mobile charger.

You're all very sensible and bave things like ice grips for your shoes

Might need to adjust my contents for when I'm back to driving 😂

Car manual.
Insurance/breakdown details just in case.
Spare phone charger.
Scraper thing for the windscreen in winter.
De-icer spray.
Some old CD's.
An old tea-towel just in case I get mucky hands under the bonnet.

Nothing at the moment as I cleared it out to be sold this week but I cleared out:
cds
cloths for demisting the windscreen
tissues
phone charger
unused bluetooth phone headset
and randomly 1 sock?? and a tube of toothpaste??

Car manual, locking nut, puke bags and maybe a pair of sunglasses if my DD hasn't stolen them again - not very exciting

Loads of cd's, a pen, car rescue card three tins of travel sweets

If you had asked a week ago I would of said a packet of congealed sweets... OH had yo take out the glove box to get at them

My car is such a basic model it doesn't have a glove box, just a dent in the dash where one should be.....this thread had made me realize I really miss having a glove box

Sat nav
Paint brush
Baby wipes
Travel sickness pills
Car log book

Emergency £10, tissues and a piece of paper which has the air pressure for my tyres because I always forget.

A piece of paper which one one side says "Pills" and "Motorway" in big letters and on the other side has my mobile phone number. To be displayed on the passenger seat as a reminder to me (first side) or on the dashboard if I'm blocking in other cars in the work car park (second side.)

Some of these are quite scary!

Nappies and wipes of course ..
