    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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...

    Usually the drugs pocket

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