    I have a 15.6" Toshiba laptop, I have a case for it, but ideally I would like a laptop bag for carrying it around on my back, needs to be sturdy but small as I would be cycling with it a bit.. Anyone recommend anything?

    :D

    You could have a look at the Tesco luggage offer. One of the options is a laptop backpack.

    Good brand I guess. You can always have a look at one in your local store and see what you think.

    Oh yeah they look decent, I'll see if we have any coupons and pick one up, for €15 you couldn't go too wrong!

    I bought the carry on case. Seemed good quality to me. I'm sure you know people who do their shopping in Tesco so it shouldn't be a big deal to collect the vouchers. As I said above, they are on display in Tesco stores throughout the country, so you can have a look at them first to see if you like them.

    until you drop the bag... i wouldn't put a laptop into a 15quid bag

    I got a swissgear 17" bag, great quality.

    I went with the tesco one... Seems decent enough quality, nothing special so hopefully I won't drop it as there isn't an awful lot of padding, but it's a nice lightweight bag so suits me! Just for anyone thinking of getting one, my 15.6" fits snug into it, so I don't think it would take any bigger than that.. :p

    I also have a tesco bag and I am glad with it. It is comfortable and looks stylish. Quality is not the best but I don’t regret purchasing it.

    I got the tesco one as well, seems grand. I use a neoprene laptop cover as well for some extra padding. Got it for €2.50 in a €2-Land-World-Pound-Shop place

    Wenger who make the tesco bags, are the same as Swissgear. I think they rebranded back to Wenger a while ago.

    TK Maxx have a really nice Bench satchel for €19.99 that'll fit a 15" and is excellent on the bike :)

    My parents picked me up a pretty awesome laptop bag at christmas.

    The brand is "Golla"

    The bag is pretty well built, Nice and not to heavy and it feels good on your arm. I'll try get some pics up of it later!
