They did an excellent report on 'The Gadget Show' last year about what items survive a good dunking and what doesn't, how to maximise your chance of recovering a dunked electrical item and what not to do in case of an accident...


It was informative, interesting, useful



but sadly I have the memory of a goldfish.... which reminds me they did an excellent report on 'The Gadget Show' last year....


I had a friend who dropped her phone down the portaloo in a stables once, it hadn't been emptied for a fortnight and she managed to retrieve the phone, let it dry out and apart from the display not working again the phone was still capable of making and receiving calls... mind you she never answered it as it smelled so foul...


As for the top pocket syndrome, ladies it is a common problem for men, who bend over the toilet to pick the seat up and their phone drops out into the water below from their to pocket... biggest cause of mobile phone failure apparently and without sounding like a chauvinistic pig ? if the toilet seat was left up like it was designed to be, then men wouldn?t have to bend over to open it thus loosing their phones in the process?a simple but effective argument for not putting the seat down I think gentlemen?. ;-)



So Kel - does it work yet or have you given up and thrown it away... it's like loosing a best friend (with a memory for numbers) when your phone dies...

:( Still nothing

It's gives me false hope everytime it manages to switch on (and then turns off) *sighs*

Shouldve seen the I got from me mate when I produced an incredibly old looking beaten up fone as its temporary replacement :-$


LuvPeckham now as much as I wuvs ya (ssshhh don't go round telling everyone that) ur not much help is ya? :p

I, as it was a useless piece of crap, dug a hole in a nice quiet part of town and tried to bury it but it wouldnt stop ringing...

I dug it back up and tried to hide it in a dark place but it kept flashing at me...

I then tried leaving it somewhere far away but it came back to haunt me...

I removed the battery but it still insisted on having the alarm going off at random times...

I bought a new fone and tried to explain to it how a fone SHOULD behave but it just turned its back on me and turned itself off briefly before deciding to continuously vibrate and bounce across the floor...

Its turned into a devil mutant of a fone! Let it be a lesson to you all - keep phones and other electrical devices AWAY from baths/towels/KalamityKels!

    • There's quite a difference between going for a run around the footpaths and trying to sit quietly for an afternoon in a wide, grassy area and enjoying the peace & nature. The other two grassy areas in the park are used for sports, and both had barriered trackway running through them. The Parkrun had to be cancelled for at least three weeks, iirc. I'm concerned by your continued reference to "the rye" - the event is held in the park, not on the rye (common). There is a big difference, despite the organisers and council artificially amalgamating the whole area when trying to convince everyone that it's only a small area that is closed off. The railings & gates enclosing the park are a big clue...
    • So have you cancelled your contract with InPost / Yodel now? If so, that's probably caused hundreds of parcels to be stuck in limbo, as they've said to me before that they can't redirect them to a different store. I have a parcel that was refused by you twice, the last time on 5/12, and since then there's been no updates, despite me calling them 3 times. They just say it's being investigated, but if they now can't physically deliver to you then that is obviously the issue. So much for shopping for Christmas presents early, looks like I'll never get them now.
    • I thought I noticed the shop being redecorated the other day when I passed. Also the old Romeo Jones had some works going on, I think 
    • Leon came to sort out a lighting issue for us last week.  He quickly diagnosed the problem and gave clear, detailed advice about how to avoid in future.  Would highly recommend him.
