    Latest addition to bag is some liquid oxygen bought on the plane (apparently a desire to spend on rubbish has been linked to the day to day of ovulation, which I think I went some way to support with that purchase). I also tend to have a spare pair of shoes (if its a decent sized bag, otherwise I have two bags).

    You are felix the cat and I claim my £5.

    For goodness sake Mr DT....you do realise I'm now fully traceable and at risk of my life from all the people I've angered here as a result of that little outing?

    Magicool is genius - though I harboour fears its pobably going to turn ut to be linked to some health scare in the future....all the good things are. :)

    I don't have condiments though, maybe I should get some.

    Whacky, me?:D

    Cool. I want some liquid oxygen in my bag, too. Just for the hell of it.

    What do you do with it? Does it weigh a lot or is it weightless, like air?

    Fascinating things you learn on here....

    It appears to be a small vial of water. I strongly suspect it is indeed that. You put it in water for a pep up. The first time we had it (on the plane) our highly suseptable minds believed inded we were ready to run up nand down the aisle of the plane with the vigour and enthusiasm of small children. I slipped some in my mother's water when we rturned (power of blind testing) and she pushed the boat out and stayed up ten minutes later than she might usually. ;)

    I've never fallen victim t on board shopping before, its the ovulation thing. I'll be guarding against such foolishness is the future.

    Maybe I'll buy a coffee instead :) (phew, back on to the topic...sort of. )

    Please be careful lir, next thing you know your phone will be being bugged by the News of the World.
    Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

    I always assume our phones are bugged. (result of too much caffiene consumption: th coffee paranoia) I'm frankly surprised more people don't. That said: it makes not a jot of difference to what I say.
