Pancakes.

I find a laptop invaluable for booking the next nights accommodation, or finding stuff in the local area etc. Wouldn't go without one.

I usually find the local internet cafe, or use my phone.

I would say camera, portable speakers and Tea but you aren't leaving the country so might not need the tea.

It might be if you're a) not staying in a hotel with WiFi (which may or may not be free either) and b) trying to travel light or c) worried about losing it/getting it stolen.

because its another bag to carry and:

So I guess the point is don't take a laptop if you are absent minded but otherwise they can be very handy. The car carries the bag, if you even keep it in its own special bag that is.

Smokes, Beers, Papers, other Smokes, Lighters, Clothes, Phone, Sunglasses, Raincoat, Wellies, Phone Charger, Pancake, Coinage, Toiletries and Food (depending on the local shops).

Tin of beans

 

[Jono8]

Seems pointless having a portable computer if you are too worried to take it anywhere

 

[K.C. Leblanc]

Swimming stuff.

Or, don't take a laptop if you don't want to take a laptop...

I'm terribly sorry I'm not as good as you at life.

Yea, that's totally the next step from wondering why you are so scared of losing a laptop.
