Hints for housewives

1. Never buy a phone so cheap that it needs rubber gloves to remove the back. You will spend a fortune on gloves.
2. Never buy a SIM free phone without buying a SIM from the same place and checking that they actually work together
3 Never go for pay and go advice from a store that only sells contracts
4 Never give up on a good time...

1a Always have an indestructible phone handy in case of sudden emergencies
2a Always keep the hammer fully charged
3a Always sound a horn three times near the cat's ear when he tries to sit on the blip

CleanSteve is going off on a trip tomorrow, to meet another blipper, and guess what:
He is taking my Samsung indestructible phone, because it is the only phone in this house that has a battery with charge, a SIM, and a contract plan. Everything else is about to go under the hammer. I have wasted hours trying to top up a PAYG Sim, and attempting to get the new cheap Nokia to work. Hours that I could have spent making cheesy courgette something or other. However, I must go out to supper now, clutching a bottle of cider and a bag of crisps, having first changed out of my work clothes...

That is, as they say, the way the cookie crumbles. Unfortunately I ate all the cookies yesterday.
