What snap bag do you have? Currently use a DeWalt rucksack but thinking of something like the JCB cool bag with plenty of pockets. A rucksack is ok but I m sort of thinking a bag that has stiff sides so my flasks don't fall over possibly with internal pockets. Need to fit two flasks a pop bottle a decent sized lunch box in plus somewhere for smaller objects such as a packet paracetamol glasses case pen etc . But obviously be able to carry it in an average modern tractor cab.
Sensible ideas please thanks.

Dad started his farming career at age 14. Like most back then, he got one of those ex army satchel type bags. Metal tin lined with an old bread bag for his doorsteps, room at the side for flask and an apple, anything extra like bottle of squash during harvest was carried.
He finally retired 2 years ago, and hung up the same bag and tin for the last time. Ok, the strap had to be replaced with a length of rope, then when it frayed too much, a length of old ratchet strap.
 
Need to buy one that you know will fit the space you have for it. Amazon loaded with such things. Some forces surplus or similar back pack works well, buy a cool bag thing that fits in the bottom along with the flash. Hate having anything on the cab floor, I prefer to sit it on the passenger seat and use one of the straps to hold it up and stop it flying about.
 
Can't remember where I got mine but I have a camping/military style single strap backpack, large enough to fit lunchbox plus a change of clothes/coveralls in and a flask. Has a fair few pockets for stuff, pen/notebook, odd tools etc and first aid kit and so on. It's not huge but certainly large enough, cost me less than £10 I think. Thin enough to go down beside the seat on a JD but parks nice on the passenger seat. :unsure:
