Re: Fun fact

But if the Richard Mongomery were ever to go up, no one will actually miss the Isle of Sheppy.

Alternatively

I prefer it if someone published the home addresses of the people who commissioned, designed and implemented these systems.

Then I'll know where to send the comrades on the first day of the revolution.

In these days of wireless charging, NFC and A2DP etc, I'm wondering when we will see a handset that can survive a proper dunking.

The environmental protection doesn't seem much better than my old Defy (which is still going, after I fell overboard from an inflatable in Norfolk)

Mind you even if this was the case, it'd be a bit of a beast to hang round my neck underneath a lifejacket.

On the bright side

If it comes to pass, it will make contract renewal decisions just a little bit easier.

'ello sir I'm a friendly boyscout.

It's nickel a job, Can I wash your car, mow your lawn, Bastionise the servers in your DMZ?

How in the name of Xenu, did the Foetus in the bottom picture manage to get medals before his testicles descended?

Re: Excellent

Not as brave as you think. That post was from work.

You should see her reaction if I mention geocaching. cue much rolling of eyes, and deep sighing.

Moktu

Excellent

I'm always looking for new ways to bore the wife.

Obviously

An organisation of people, with too much time on their hands. They should try procrasturbation or just "getting a life"

And I can't let a thread about Geico go by without indulging.... "hmmmm Miss Geico"

Seems like an enterprising chap. rather better than ending up being shipped overseas, and picked over for precious metals by chinese children (poisioning them in the process).

If i need an IT bod who can think outside the box, I'll look him up.

Moktu

Cheers for that!!!

I've just spent a productive 20 minutes creating a dual boot Win 7 / Mint workstation.

It's been simply years since I tried Linux, and to be honest didn't have the patience to persevere. I have to say, i'm impressed with the improvements.

time to have a mooch round, while the boss isn't looking.

Moktu

The recipients i'm asuming, will then pass it back to the real people who have been overcharged... The end customer.

Re: I'm considering getting one.

I have a "spare" Galaxy Note as well :sheepish grin::

I want a bright red handset for a spare.... Who am I kidding? I want a Lumina 920 but the wife would kill me....

MUST RESIST bright coloured shiny....

Moktu

I'm considering getting one.

My personal contract is up for renewal, Now I have a much loved Galaxy Note on that SIM at the moment, but as a standby phone they certainly look the biz.

It's either one of these or a Lumina 920.

With all the wildlife that is simply waiting to rid the country of as many humans as it can, it never ceased to amaze me how they ran round screaming like a five year old, at the very sight of a "European Wasp"

It's always funny to watch an entire BBQ of surfers and rugby players run around screaming, because of one little wasp.

I can't believe I'm actually excited about a phone release.

Re: Eluga Power

Very true, but my original Motorola Defy has survived a couple of dunkings.

The drowned Note, was solely due to me getting excited about getting onto the water, and forgetting to transfer the SIM into the Defy (Which I duely packed into a waterproof flare type box). I cried like a gurl.

Also as my boss like to remind me, I'm employed to be avaliable 24/7/365 so I can have a handset at the helm, and the odd bit of spray / rain doesn't bother it.

As I'm already rapidly going off topic. My fanboiism for life, to the first company that uses inductive charging and Stereo over Bluetooth to provide a proper smartphone (W8, Android, anything else) that can survive depths of 5 meters for an hour.

Re: Eluga Power

A very stupid name, but an IP57 rated handset with a 5" screen.....

I'd seriously like one of those as my boaty phone. The sinking feeling you get when you are standing up to your waist in seawater, and you remember which pocket your Galaxy Note is left in, is not one I want to repeat.
