Looks nice but I'm a bit concerned about no zip at the top. How secure is the flapover please? What's the zip around the bottom of the bag for? Is it just an umbrella type pocket, or what?

If the bag was put upside down smaller things would fall out but it is massive. The flap is fastened by two press-studs. And the zip bit is to make the bag wider or narrower so you can fit more or less in it. I think it's actually for students so they can fit books files laptops whatever in it. It would make a good hand luggage weekend bag to fit overspill luggage into. Inside it has two compartments and a small zipped purse compartment. Hope that makes sense - don't mind if you have any more questions!

I have a question for /Amazon Kipling though - how come the black shade bags are hardly EVER cheap? It's the only colour bag I buy.

Probs because it's generally a very popular colour (not just for kipling fans).

Yes the Madhouse looks like a satchel sort - but lovely and big.

I like the look of this but it sounds like it would be too big for a normal everyday bag - so I'm wondering how it would do me for work (any excuse to buy :rotfl:).

The reviews do say it's great as a school bag as it can fit A4 folders etc. I'm currently using a satchel style bag from Argos to carry my work files, plus flask and sarnies. With summer arriving I need to fit a desk fan in there as well. (I work part time and we hot desk so I can't leave the fan at work or it would go missing). It's not a full size fan, it's about half the size of a normal desk fan - imagine the size of a hairdryer with a diffuser maybe. Do you reckon it would fit that lot when fully expanded?
