What am I doing wrong?


The standby mobile phone they gave me while they repair mine has just died - in exactly the same way.



Tomorrow I will now be completely contactless (except by that ancient old thing called the land line)

Being free of homing devices in the guise of a mobile telephone, this ancient beauty is all I know.

You ain't havin much luck there are you, Soot?


If it's bust in exactly the same way, maybe it's something you've been doing to them.  I suggest that you don't put it in the toaster, use it in the shower or dip it in chocolate any more!


I speak the truth.  Believe it!

That reminds me of something an aquaintance at work did a while ago...we had a load of (bout 3 yrs worth of progs) stuff backed up on floppy disk from a CNC machine.  I gave him the pile of floppys, and he put them on the bench next to him.  So I deleted all the files of the CNC.  He'd only put them on a magnetic table hadn't he

I keep mine in my pocket (not for the vibrating alert you know - just so I can hear it go off whatever room I'm in as I never sit still at home) so unless my thigh is magnetic...


I always knew I had a magnetic personality. 
Don't worry I'll groan for you - it was a poor effort I know.  C+ must try harder.

Ah but Susan do you sit near anything big and electrical? Do you like to stand and watch things cook in the microwave? Been on a plane?


Been near anything with say..... 3 speeds and a battery pack attachment?.... maybe not.
