I've got a hammer and screwdriver set not unlike picture five.

When I was on holiday in Ireland once years ago we were in a hotel which had the old round electricity sockets (same voltage but different fitting) and I couldn't plug my hairdryer in. I borrowed a plug to swap with the one I had on it and my (male) friend was curious as to how I'd managed to change the plug without asking for a screwdriver. Easy! I just used the metal nail file in my manicure set. I never use those for my nails anyway because they aren't very effective but the ones with a blunt end make excellent emergency screwdrivers.
