Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)
Can anyone give me a genuine reason for the price of 2nd-hand iphones? My attention was today drawn to the ebay site,by a very excited and agitated friend who was bidding for a 2nd-hand one.Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)

Ok....thanks RJ-I frequently am referred to as 'Polymath Pug' by several acquaintances - note I don't say 'friends'. They're the ones who jeer and gossip when I'm at a distance,but are VERY fast to ask for help,assistance,guidance or direction when the effluence interfaces with the air conditioning. No matter-this interwebz is an indirect medium of converse,so everyone is a hero. BUT,that aside....I've just had it explained to me fairly energetically,by Weedy & The Scrote [two teenage/early twenties girls who live along the lane-and yes,I'm very fond and protective of them both,despite the honorific appellations] that it's a 'generation thing'.Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)
I don't use my cell -phone a lot but it remains invaluable particularly in the bush. when I first purchased it from Telstra [you must have heard about them?] it comes with all wizdrop extras that cost more money. the ability to surf the net and send pics to deranged children - it was costing me $130 a month and they never warn you. being a slow learner it took me a while to realize like 12 mths. I cancelled everything - NO i do not want continues picks of my grandkids they grow to fast!Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)
I think it's just me,gumbud....mayhap,the way I relate [or,more accurately,fail to relate] to the ever-changing,ever-more-expensive personal technology. By which,I refer NOT to such advances as defibrillators,sandwich toasters,microwave ovens and,to a lesser degree,flat-screen tv sets,but to such items as wrist pedometers,mobile telephones that give you your heartbeat-rate,the weather conditions in Hammerfest,the price of coffee shares on NASDAQ,plus the current "Who said what about whom" whilst simultaneously solving inversional equasions,hosting a Facepalm conversation and notifying you that your chips are ready and how bad the traffic is on the M25. [it's shit,as per].Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)
I have the strong conviction that I should take a moore positive interest in the life of my teenage grandchildren. I have 3 more aged 2,4, & 9.Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)
yes gardening - reading about the allotment owners and their antics on this site does me heart good. can't beat rummaging around on an allotment.
