he didnt say socks n flipflops;)
Found it! My mobile phone went missing a few days ago and I'd been hunting everywhere for it. I hardly ever use it, but like having it handy 'just in case'. I'd even started looking online for replacements. The damn thing was in my SatNav box which I'd used for a journey about a week ago. :rolleyes:

Dreadful things... And with SOCKS? You've GOT to be kidding!!!!:lol:
They are BEACH WEAR (or for around an indoor pool, say at the gym, or hot tub/jacuzzi) - end of - and shouldn't be seen outside of that! About the house? Wear slippers, or just pad around in your socks or bare feet.

Did you not try ringing it?;)Quote:

My mobile phone went missing a couple of months ago. Looked everywhere, and tried ringing it a few times using my partner's phone. To no apparent avail - yet the idea worked: the phone had fallen out of my jacket pocket when I was getting out of a taxi. The taxi driver heard the phone ringing, located the phone when it was convenient and phoned the last number called. He brought the phone around to my place after he finished work for the day. I paid him the taxi fare plus a generous tip for his trouble.Quote:

Nice one, Barry. Restores your faith in human nature - and well done for rewarding him appropriately too, which will hopefully encourage him to do something similar again for someone else!:)

Yes, it does restore your faith in human nature. I like to think I would have done the same if I found a mobile phone that had been dropped ringing.
I would too, especially given how much some folk rely on them these days. Del would be lost without hers, chatting to all her girly friends on whats app, etc.
Of course I don't approve [you know my feeling about smartphones] but I know she'd strop like hell if I tried to stop her [think WW3]:eek::eek: although more importantly I respect her right to do her thing:)

It wasn't on mate (seldom is :))Quote:
