Just to update before I start a new, unrelated thread here.
You know those trendy young people who carry their folders? Where do they live? Is it somewhere sunny? Why yes! Is it England? Oh no, it's sunny in the trendy films.
Stupid English weather. I'm not singing and dancing in the rain - I'm trying to stop my brolly blowing away and also to leap over puddles at the smallest, shallowest point without getting wet.
I did try the big bag and no, not going to happen for me - I feel stupid and it's heavy and looks silly on me. So it's a medium-sized bag and no folder, I can file things at home. At least my computer's small! (The memory stick came on a keyring so that's good for me!)
Stupid bags. Why do we have to be women and have this issue?

In Australia there is a fantastic bag/satchel/backpack etc company called Crumpler which is highly favoured by uni students. Not sure if you can access them in the UK but they make really great large/medium satchels etc that I think would really suit you. I received a Crumpler backpack for Christmas from my DH. There's a piccy of it in my gallery. Love it. Asked for a backpack because with kids in tow you often need hands-free. They are also extremely well made. There's a also a BB thread about them... do a search on "Crumpler" if you are interested.
