Men who wear bum bags look very, very silly. Even the gay boys I know stopped wearing them in the late eighties.
For commuting and gadding about town, I have a plastic tub from BBB that goes in one of my bottle cages and contains a spare tube, levers, alan keys, patch kit, vinyl gloves and some coin-cell back-up lights. I object to both getting my hands dirty and not having lights at night. I usually stash my pump in my back pocket if I'm sans luggage.
Incidentally, for those of you who've carried but never used a CO2 bottle, I strongly suggest that you try to avoid holding the metal part whilst you're filling your tyres...
