    You know the little pocket inside the right hand pocket of your jeans. I've always known of it as the johnnie pocket. But I've never had a johnnie in it. I never put anything in it. Years ago I used to put a cloakroom ticket in it when i was at a club, but dont anymore.
    Have you ever had a johnnie in your johnnie pocket, or what do you put in there ?

    Money. By accident. Then I can't find it when I look in my proper pocket and think I've lost it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,104 ✭✭✭easyeason3


    I have a handbag for such things.

    Get a man bag & man up :D

    I always thought they were for hooking your thumbs in and slouching enigmatically.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,406 ✭✭✭PirateShampoo


    Back in the day i would store my fo'shizzle there.

    I often put money in there on a night out in case I 'lose' it. Then I completely forget about it and thet a pleasent surprise when I find the money, usually after it's been through a few washes.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,272 ✭✭✭Barna77


    I kept once a big cheque for Anglo Irish, but then I lost it and someone told the media. Big fuss after that.

    Since then only a few coins.

    Fluff, mainly.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,783 ✭✭✭Hank_Jones


    I used to keep loads of things in there, not at the same time of course.

    Would sometimes keep a jonny in there, but I would think that I honestly can't remember ever having to take a jonny out of that pocket though.
    Probably because I wasn't getting any.

    I certainly used to keep drugs in there.
    Handy for keeping small quantities.

    Tickets for cloakrooms as well.
    Lost my tickets quite a few times though, so I wouldn't advise people to keep tickets there.

    Um, keeping a condom in that pocket will cause the same problems as keeping it in a wallet, overheating, stretching and possibly breaking on use. Which, would be a major problem I would assume?

    That's not the reason why blokes carry condoms. They carry them in the hope that they get their hole... anything that happens after that is largely irrelevant!

    Yes it would but that doesn't matter. It's been expired since April 2005 anyway...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,554 ✭✭✭zonEEE


    Usually the drugs pocket

    I sometimes keep an extra, smaller, and even less useful pocket inside of it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 497 ✭✭Mr Keek


    My lighter. Some times the spare battery for my phone!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 664 ✭✭✭craggles


    It's brilliant for notes, fivers, tenners, 20s.

    Fifty euro notes will go in but that's pushing it.

    Notes are also easy to take out of this pocket. Coins are not. Do not put coins in.

    You're welcome.

    Hi
    My first post on this sight, and I'll admit I never heard of Johnny Pocket and looked in out of curiosity.
    Because of the difference in our cultures, I'll not tell you what I use mine for out of respect, but be it known, it is none of the above.:)

    cloakroom tickets, bus tickets, that sort of thing.

    It's actually called a ticket pocket.

    Just found a fiver :) Thanked!

    It's going to be a good day :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,382 ✭✭✭petes


    If I'm heading out I'd stick twenty quid in there. Doesn't last too long mind.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 246 ✭✭LandoCalrissian


    If I'm heading out and dont want to bring a big set of keys with me I will just put my front door key in there

    But if I'm pissed when I arrive home it can result in a lot a pocket rummaging that could easily be misconstrued by a passer by


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,775 ✭✭✭✭kfallon


    Used to always fold up my money (notes only) and put them in there!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 416 ✭✭scudster


    Sometimes I also keep my mayonaise bags in there.:D
