This is a question Essential Items

Our friend always carries 30ft of lightweight rope with him. We took the piss until we heard he got stuck in a lift, and managed to get everyone out in 5 mins.

What odd things to you always carry with you?

i used to think i was alone
in my survivalist paranoia. thank you for making me realise there are many of us :)

as well as the usual phone/keys/wallet combo i have heft (depending on whether its my 'street/work' jacket or my adventuring /festival jacket/waistcoat ensamble)...

secondary waterproof baccy/skins/weed pouch. usually with small soapstone chillum (don't tell me thats not a good idea for festivals)
swiss army knife (proper one with magnifying glass and such)
woodsmans knife
few metres cord. medium nylon and thick nylon core.
string. thin white and thick garden HD twine
some cotton
glowsticks (soooo useful. when you need them you neeeed them)
jerky. used to be veggy (grim) now its free range happy cow :)
berries/nuts/musli etc (gorp)
camera
torch
sketchbook/pens
book
marker pen/stickers
socks
antiseptic hand wash (superdrug has a good one for a quid)
needle etc
3 lighters. full and working
tinder in dry pouch
f'ood for free' book

in fact loads more but will avoid boring list. it fills 14 pockets (i used a pocket calculator hehe) and one small 25 litre day sack. its fun when i go to a night club...

needlesss to say i am the guy who gets to go "i've got one" when someone asks for something they don't actually expect anyone to have. like some sugar and milk (i steal sachets and likkle tub things a lot) or a plaster. i am searched out at festivals :)
