For fun, What would you say are the 5 main things a mum has to have in her handbag at all times and what is the most random thing in your handbag?

I almost always have half a brownie or traybake that one of mine couldn't finish in a cafe but refused to leave, wrapped in a serviette. In fact I probably have one now despite not having been to a cafe for at least 6 weeks. In my defence I've not used my handbag during lockdown either. It'll be beside random bits of colouring in that couldn't be left behind either.

I stopped using a handbag because I got fed up of my partner (now ex) asking me to put stuff in it. I still don’t often use a handbag and just use pockets

Random item is a lucky sock from when my son was a newborn. It's so far got me through exams and a place in uni so I don't want to take it out now, just in case!

I always have-

Crystals
Loose foreign currency
A penguin (chocolate biscuit)

It’s only a small bag so the rest of the room is purse and a bottle of water and keys if I haven’t forgotten them
