No-one ever mentioned being prepared for every eventuality. But being
trivially easily prepared for some common situations seems sensible
enough. It's no longer legal though. Huge does have a point this time.

Well, I've been told you need your Leatherman, a torch, your phone and
gawd knows what else when you pop out to post a letter. So I'd guess you'd
add to that your wallet with every single card etc you might ever need and
your Kindle in case you decide to have a read on the way.

By the time you've stowed that lot away, you've missed the last post...

I carry an upper range Swiss Army Knife, no magnifier or pozi-drive but
it does have an a corkscrew to the detriment of my pocket linings.

I also carry my full complement of cards without much concern. I don't
*shop* as such and consider myself a poor target for pickpockets.
