No, Dianne, I wasn't in the girl guides....I was in the boyscouts...it was much more interesting!

Surgical tape is in there for when I get blisters....which I sometimes do....despite wearing sensible shoes.

When I was working, I was notorious for carrying everything anyone might need in my handbag......if anyone wanted anything the call went up 'see Sr P - she's bound to have one in her handbag'.
I went to Spain one year with my boss and the toilet in our room would not flush........who mended it(Temporarily)?
Yes, it was me with a pair of Spencer Wells forceps and a length of chain.

Why did I have Spencer Wells forceps in my handbag....to tune in hotel room TV's(oh and they were invaluable for other things too).
