Hide the MAN-BAGS!!

DARN!! JUST WHEN I WAS ABOUT TO GET A MAN BAG... LOOK OUT!
Insurance companies are warning that the UK trend of "Man-Bags" are becoming a target for crooks. Better un-wrap that man bag and return it to wally world. Shucks. :(

Here's the full story -
Trendy manbags, adored by celebrities such as shamed TV presenter Jonathan Ross and soccer stars David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo, are a new target for muggers, insurance experts have warned.
For “metrosexuals” fed up with unsightly, bulging pockets stuffed with change are using them to carry wallets, keys and expensive gadgets such as iPods, BlackBerrys and mobile phones.
And Post Office Home Insurance believes fashionable men are just as likely to be robbed for their designer clutch and shoulder bags as women.
A spokesman said: “It’s important that men consider this a serious risk and that they take steps to protect their possessions.”
