The contents of a handbag would be more interesting than a pocket.

Ur, depends on the pocket, Hilary – or, in my case, 2 pockets in my trou, and 4 attachments to waistband thereof-would take a bit long to enumerate the contents thereof, and I’m not in a pissing contest anyway, but…they all make me feel equipped for a lot of possibilities and so, somenow/somewhen- safer?

That's kind of cool, but I'd be interested to know how many here have a switch blade as a standard pocket item. Knives abound.

As our legal currency, banknotes should not be defaced. Aiding, abetting, inciting Russell ?!
"The Reserve Bank Act 1989 says that “No person shall, without the prior consent of the Bank, wilfully deface, disfigure, or mutilate any bank note.” A person can be fined up to $1,000 if caught defacing a banknote"

At home, I always have 4 blades to hand* - a tiny Swiss Army manicure knife; a Leatherman X6 Juice multitool that has 2 blades in it (serrated and plain), and my ancient trusty Mercator locking knife.
When travelling, I leave the Mercator at home...*Actually, I have many hundreds of blades ready to hand at home, because I collect knives and edged weapons.

I spent the last three weeks in Bangalore on a biz trip, I'd say maybe 10% of the notes I received in change came with some added text - of course it's harder to write on plastic notes than on cloth/paper ones

Yes it is probably about safety. I don't usually have pockets and don't really miss them, but I wouldn't go too far from home without my bag full of 'just in case' things.

In my pocket: a street map of Portland, some American dollars, a broken watch and a hotel door card.
Stayed up late last night to watch Bruce Springsteen on the Tonight with Jimmy Fallon show (plugging his new album Wrecking Ball). Tom Merillo was on lead guitar, which was a little strange,
