Day bag

When the children were little, Husband and I never went anywhere without the "day bag", which we kept packed with all those things - nappies, wipes, bottles, toys, more wipes - that small children need during the course of the day. As far as possible it was kept ready packed, with just a quick top-up needed each day of things which had run out or which needed to be fresh.

Son and Daughter have left home for university but the old folk still have the "day bag" for holidays and days out. What does it hold now? A rather sad collection of essentials for the not-so-young - prescription medicines, reading glasses, binoculars, spare plastic carrier bags.
