Waterproof, loss-proof- a good sense of humour, patience and a beaming smile! Can get you out of all sorts of things:biggrin:
And, ah yes, mint tea bags:thumbup1:

Handy Straps for you all to check out.
 

Hey all. Thanks Mollydog for the excellent tips and pics on your tool kit, that has given me some great ideas for my own kit. For all you people out there still using Bungee type straps I thought you might enjoy having a look at what IMHO are the best straps I have ever used. These things stay in place, are dead easy to use and best of all the won't damage your paintwork!

.which is still snail slow...but

bungee vs. straps
 

Use both. Cheap insurance and stretch a cargo net over your Ortleib bag for quick stuffs.
Easy and safe
