Bad Thing

Why can't you shoot burglars?

Good Thing - NOT

Carphone Warehouse - Trafford Park
Took dead Nokia in
Smooth efficient service - will let u know how it goes wrt whether they can actually fix the darn thing

Just phoned 03/08/03 - ''engineer not here - 'phone left on bench - don't know if its fixed or not''
The wonders of a modern 'communications' company - you got to laugh

Finally they said 'it's got traces of liquid on the inside - we can't fix it undew warranty if its water damage'

So claim off insurance - £25 xs bummer- new phone - but beware Nokia phones need to be pampered and kept away from all sources of moisture like sweat, air (unless it's 0% humidity), fruit, beer, dogs, cats, small boys, oh and rain (which we don't get in Manchester do we?). Come back Ericsson all is forgiven, but lower the price of your batteries to less than a cheap competitors phone.

Oh Blogger! Got a dose of LOP

Bloomin parasite infested this machine - think I managed to get rid of it, Thanks to and.doxdesk.com: parasite: lop and Ad-aware 6 from Lavasoft

Google Toolbar

Google Toolbar
Google Toolbar is cool and easy to use - comes with PopUp Blocker too

Coincidence mean't that just as the young offspring had a moan about pop-ups in comes good ole Tourbus with a report about the Beta 2.0 version of the toolbar with - guess what? - a pop-up blocker!
