I was wondering what all anyone keeps in their locker that they might recommend that would be a good idea?

A toiletry bag for those times you have a REALLY grotty day, do you want to take it home or shower after you take those bloody scrubs off?
Clean cloth caps (as colourful as I can find..) spare pens, electric razor and my theatre shoes when off duty.
