I want a small bag to carry about - needs to carry a tiny laptop, a kindle, that kind of ultra modern trendy consumerist planet-raping junk, plus a few extra odds and sods.
I have a messenger bag but it's much too big for this application.
LEGAL NOTICE:
You may rip the piss.
This one is quite nice 
Might struggle to cope with the laptop, but isn't it just divine
You've been going to that there London, haven't you?
I saw more tossers with manbags in Manchester than I've ever seen in that London.
molgrips - I'm shocked!
Bravisimo - Thats because you spent your days loitering around Selfridges, making the place look untidy.
None of those people are actually from Manchester - Mancs are prevented from entering by security - Those blokes* are from Cheshire. And are all ****s!
* The term bloke is used figuratively in this case, and does not suggest the presence of any male hormones, genitalia or testosterone
Junkyard - Aldi, Lidl or Netto?

Remember as a kid you'd want a 'cool' carrier bag even if it was to carry files or crap....
Nowadays I wont flinch at carrying a Bargain Booze carrier in broad daylight... 
Osprey flapjack, ortleib sling it or Keen Taylor 13 which is designed with your needs in mind(outside bottle pocket is great, water away from your gadgets).
I saw more MEN with manbags in Manchester
Did Binners & Hora take you up Canal Street?
I like my northface one.

Available online or at London Graphic Centre near Seven Dials.

Oi! I'm from Cheshire.
Mind you, I do have a little courier bag that I carry around a lot of the time. I would argue that it's a bag carried by a man, but not a man bag. However, I can see an element of potato/tomato in my argument...

Ooo-errr.
I bet Manchesters own Scott Alexander has one
I got a sort of heavy cloth satchel affair from, uh, John Lewis or M&S or some such, in the Trafford Centre. Really like it. I'd post a pic but it's at home today.
Before that I had an 'Animal' variant of the same; it was second hand and "well loved" when I got it, and it was still going strong after years of abuse at my hand. Couldn't fault it.

A smaller messenger bag.
Out for lunch with a few colleagues (two blokes, me and a laydee) a few years ago in central Manchester. As we get up to leave, one of the chaps says "I'm going to Mulberry to look at manbags, do you want to come?"
Well, we could hardly resist, so off we trotted. Into the store we go, and upstairs to the men's section.
Very camp shop assistant attends and tries to guide my colleague. He offers helpful advice (we're all p---ing ourselves), until colleague is convinced one of the bags is for him. Turning to the assistant for an approving look, he is met with the response:
"Sir, we do tend to find that many of our customers find that style rather, er... European."
Laugh? We nearly sh-t ourselves.... 
Rapha.. musette..
Why do you need a bag?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I find my pockets hold everything; a phone and a ...wallet.
If I needed for anything else it'd be a small rucksack (which is never used).

Yeah, right. Like you own a wallet. What would be the point, there would be nowt in it. You keep a fiver in your sock for emergencies
Its for holding pictures of you my sweet.

You don't want to know what he keeps in his other sock.
does it rhyme with sock and is black in colour?
beaten to my joke by Hora -
You don't need to carry a picture of me, silly. Surely the enormous portrait of me, naked, staring wistfully into the middle distance, above the fireplace, should suffice?
The one I had commissioned for your birthday? You have put it up haven't you? I had to pose for hours for that
Tis affixed to my bedroom ceiling
You have put it up haven't you?
Hora put a WTD ad in the classifieds for some ceiling mounts.
Edit ^what she said.
Right, those are mostly too big. The laptop is a tiny smaller than netbook thing. I have an osprey flapjack but my tiny pooter will rattle around in it. I'd like a shoulder one rather than a rucksack.
I do quite like that Rapha one though. Do I need to be banned for life now?
don't you have a spare one hanging around? Used to have balls in it.
