SM'S Kit!

You forgot the spare batteries (AA and AAA and one 9V) all of which were used during Fringe, also the roll of paper towel (handy for mopping up spills, blood, packing a small gap in the scenery, etc). plus one or two other odds and sods like the small pack of different size hooks I found one day that just keeps getting used, and the pegs for holding curtains closed, or open, and the safety pins. All in a small red box. I stand by the first aid kit...although it too, is self built rather than completely shop bought. When Nathan cut his hand quite badly two minutes before TRex I held his hand under the water cask for 1 minute, dried it by pressing firmly with paper towel, then doused it with the antiseptic stuff, shoved a pre-wrapped sterile cotton pad on it and held it on with paper tape overlaid with gaffer. Stung like heck but it didn't shift until after the performance when we got him to the proper first aider who laughed at the sight of it but said I'd done the right thing. In spite of the initial sting when the dettol went on Nathan was happy too, hurrah for gaffer!
