What would you take,or what couldn't you live without.

My car keys (so I would somewhere to sleep if necessary)my lap top or ipad which ever was nearest medication and mr.glamma oh yes and "Nice & Easy" no 98 so I can do my roots.

Medication, credit cards, iPad. And DH!

Glasses, laptop, something warm.
When in NZ I do worry about earthquakes - specifically, what happened if there was one in the night and my glasses had fallen on the floor and I couldn't find them and I had to evacuate the house without them into a very blurry world. And be stuck in that blurry world for who knows how long. Solutions to this difficult problem are very welcome.
I worry about that far more than the much worse things that could happen were there an earthquake.

nellie You're priceless!

Family photos, videos and DVDs, plus my laptop with many more photos on it not transferred to DVD yet. No amount of insurance would ever replace them.

my glasses,I don't fear nudity if in case of fire but If I am going to be rescued,I want to see my hunky fireman rescuer.....

My iPad, a reproduction of a painting that I have had since I was 12 and my two teddy bears. You can't cuddle an iPad. I was always the person who insisted on picking up my laptop and handbag when the fire alarm went off in the office.

My bank papers, prescription drugs and laptop so I can slag him off on facebook

Mr absent and the last remaining bottles of the vintage Fonseca

…and the cats, of course

…and maybe the kitchen calendar

…and the beautiful necklace I inherited from my mother.

In reality, I should probably run out with odd shoes and an empty bag.

My handbag and my Laptop, the rest is in storage!

Bags has just reminded me that I'd need a second van for medication...and a little big suitcase for G & T's

Come to think of it, I would need to load up my prescription medicines but especially the steroids I'm taking at present. However, my prescriptions are on line so hence the laptop which also contains family photos.

jacey every credit to you for having the courage to leave,my daughter got beaten on the point of leaving.....BUT this is nellies soapbox and a subject that needs to be spoken about and info made available,have done voluntary work with families that are in crisis and helped to support them. too late for my daughter sadly but any helped after that is a bonusxxxxxx

The painkillers I need every day.

Jewellry!

On present evidence, my laptop!

The last one is easy ...my laptop!!

But on a more serious note ...leaving in an emergency ...things?? {am assuming we're taking children and pets as a given} ...then again probably laptop as it would hold all those picture memories etc. and it holds all important numbers eg bank details, accounts information and telephone numbers, e-mail addresses. My handbag would contain the list you've already given on the other thread.

Fortunately, I had a few days in which to plan my escape ...so was prepared ...but if I'd had only hours it would have been very difficult

nelliedeane I wish I'd had access to the advice you've given on that other thread Keep spreading the word

marmalade

Family photograph albums...all of them...would therefore need a van!
