My new phone

[Nick]

Amongst other things has an MP3 player. Is that OK. DO I need to read the manual?

Never, ever read the manual... do you hear? 

[Nick]

I wasn't planning to. I shall just play with it randomly to see what happens, like life does to me

[Misunderstood]

I got an all-singing-all-dancing-nearly-makes-the-tea phone about a year ago.

Today, I discovered that it accepts incoming phone calls.    Why would it do that?

It referred everybody to voicemail before so I could ignore them all - It was lovely!

[GROWLER]

Just been ont 3 to cancel my contract with them....via India, where else.

They pursuaded me to stay.
I complained about the netwerk coverage, as it's crap.
They now inform me that I can change my provider to Orange via them, by pressing a few buttons.

Sending me a new Nokia N73 apparently.

I HOPE I've done the right thing.

My new one is on charge. Couldn't find the charger hole (hidden by special chargey hole cap). Had to read the manual to find the cap and broke it getting it off! Chargey hole cap flew across kitchen and is lost.

Chatty decorator has now got old chargey thing (he has the same phone as my old phone). Unplugging old chargey thing to give to him I managed to knock toaster onto stone floor.

HOw do MP3 players work then. Must play with that later.

Work to attend? Whatever! New toy!

Orange is crap in this area. Doesn't even get a signal in my house and the f*****g aerial is only a few hundred yards away ~ on the other side of the mountain. Kid has Virgin which works well (yes I know they piggy-back on someone else) and wife has T Mobile that also works in the house.

what make and model phone is it, there is bound to be an mp3 for dummies page for it somewhere on the web that would cover all possible problems with your mobile that the manual wouldnt have included.



No I'm not saying that Nick needs a dummies guide, just working on the basis that  calamiity will probably strike and figure that these guides may help reduce the damage

Orange crap in my local (which is handy, as Mrs TMR rings me and it goes straight onto answer phone - and she knows this happens, so doesn't rip my head off  ) but I had a full signal at Cadwell Park - although the BlackBerry, on O2, had nothing - hence my lack of posting.

[GROWLER]

Orange good 'round 'ere, which is why I said yes.

Good and bad areas for all suppliers I guess, only 3 seem to be particulary bad apparently.

[Grumpmeister]

Been with 3 for a few years now, never had a problem with them

[Nick]

I can't work it!

[Barman]

I can't work it!

Never?

Which is why I have the phone number of Mr Wench's local.

When we ran a pub there was a standing order that all telephone enquiries from wives should be answered with "He just left". The drinker would be tipped off and draining his glass would head for the door. On one occasion the wife called, got the usual response and the drinker was informed that his immediate departure from the bar was expected. He failed to drink up and sprint and twenty minutes later his dinner came through the window followed by his pudding and, in my direction "And you're a fvcking liar too!" 

By the time he got home she was gone ~ back to her mother, according to the note. He returned to the pub, offered to pay for the window repairs, helped two other regulars board it up for the night and resumed drinking.
She never returned.
