That's a good idea... next time I'll ask for that if I'm in a mall or something

Oh, does anyone ever bite your purse? I've bite on my Sophie one time when I was in a restaurant's bathroom and I've removed the strap to use as a clutch, and I was wearing a dress at the time. So no hook to hang around my neck or shoulder... I was biting on the canvas until I finish my business

sometimes it is not easy to leave it on my arm as the strap keeps falling off when you do the *squating* pose.

^^^ This is EXACTLY what I do as well.

The plastic bag also comes in handy when it rains and I get caught out in it! You should see the looks I get though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL! So funny, but sounds oddly familiar... I do that all the time! I'm a bit of a germaphobe so public washrooms are scary to begin with. If I'm with my BF, I make him hold my purse

and if not, I do lap or shoulder.

Good story, thanks for sharing

As for any public washroom I try to not let ANYTHING of mine touch anything of theirs. This includes pantlegs, purses, skin, shopping bags...etc. So I'm usually in there with my pants down, pantlegs scrunch up in my hands, while securing my hand-held-handbag clenched under my chin, shopping bags if any in my armpits...all at the same time looking around to make sure everything is not touching. (Don't get me started when the TP dispenser doesn't ripp the TP properly when I am in this state.) Whew...its an ordeal.

I actually have a whole routine for public washroom usage but that's a whole other thread topic....

I hope this wasn't too much info.

Sooo funny sil!

Ha! I love this! I definitely am grossed out quite often by the conditions of public restrooms - yuck! I have used my knees many times, but must admit I am most impressed with the around the neck...I might have to try it!!!

now, just imagine that

I've done this too! I'll do anything to protect my babies, except the one time my Juicy bag landed on the floor as I ran in emergency

Definitely a bit embarrassing haha but I once-overed the floor and dropped it! It was one of those bathrooms like at home, where it's one toilet and sink, and by that point I didn't even care! The bag was defective anyway so I didn't feel as badly
