What does this actually mean to us?, I will tell you.

Y'know how the blue meanies like to keep stopping innocent law abidding citizens at rail / bus/ coach or transit hubs, because you are white, clean, tidy etc which makes you a suspect they DARE stop, even if you are just walking in the street and they come out with the usual

"Whats in the bag son?"

( I usually reply " I'm not your son so call me Sir")

Then they proceed to question you in apparent glee cos they think your a cat burglar because of the gear in your EDC or BOB bag.

Often they simply have never heard of the terms EDC, preppers, travel kit, emergency kits, get home kit, bug out bags even though we are encouraged by the govt to have 72 hour preps incase AQ come back.

So now I will keep the two A4 pages from the Niton catalogue to be able to say " Here its a bag for the same reason you guys have them, IE to make life safer, secure and better organised."

when you say AQ come back wot is AQ
