Whew, snatched three hours sleep and am heading back. Big 9lb boy arrived last night.

Interestingly i did have an app for monitoring contractions, but i got bored after the first 24 hours (missus mockers got bored of them after the first contraction frankly). Plus it was really buggy and the chart scales were really rubbish.

Plus when you're being induced it's all controlled by drugs anyhow, so utterly pointless really.


Anyway, geeky stuff apart ma and baby fine thanks chap(esse)s.

copy them on to your sim, and then copy them off your sim.

This is a pain as it means all the home, mobile type info is lost.


CAn you sync your nokia with windows contacts, then sync your new iphone with windows contacts (the latter definitely possible)?...bobs yer proverbial if you can.

What the heck are you using it for Piers that it only lasts six hours?


I left my charger at work on Friday night. Leaving work with a fully charged phone and with bare minimum usage it was still alive this morning (I wasn't at work on Monday). Not bad.


I reckon the battery life seems low but only because you end up using it for some much more stuff than a normal mobile and a lot of those apps are juice drinkers.

I really don't use the apps that much; mostly the browser but at work it's plugged into pc so won't drain. If I use the map function (far and away the most useful app) then I can kiss goodbye to the battery in half an hour.


Ok it will last longer as long as I don't use it at all. Bu that rather defeats the purpose. Plus it's an old 3G and I suspect it's always had a dodgy battery.

To me the most annoying thing about a mobile (along with it ringing when I?m carrying my shopping on the bus or beeping when I?m trying to have a nap) is the fact that I have to charge it once a week. If I had to charge it every day I just wouldn?t bother no matter how much fancy shit it did.

You're not really built for the modern age, are you Brendan?

You need a Powermat, Brendan.


Simply fit your phone with a Powermat receiver (purchase separately from Powermat) then lay your phone carefully on the mat to charge it up, making sure the mat is turned on and the correct surface area of the phone is in contact with the correct surface area of the mat.


Takes all the hassle and effort out of charging your phone the old-fashioned way.

Convened by The Hague Group and co-chaired by the governments of Colombia and South Africa, the Emergency Conference on Palestine brought together 30 states for two days of intensive deliberation — and emerged with a concrete, coordinated six-point plan to restrain Israel’s war machine and uphold international law. States took up the call from their host, Colombian President and Progressive International Council Member Gustavo Petro, who had urged them to be “protagonists together.” Twelve governments signed onto the measures immediately. The rest now have a deadline: 20 September 2025, on the eve of the United Nations General Assembly. The unprecedented six measures commit states to:     Prevent military and dual use exports to Israel.     Refuse Israeli weapons transfers at their ports.     Prevent vessels carrying weapons to Israel under their national flags.     Review all public contracts to prevent public institutions and funds from supporting Israel’s illegal occupation.     Pursue justice for international crimes.     Support universal jurisdiction to hold perpetrators accountable. “We came to Bogotá to make history — and we did,” said Colombian President Gustavo Petro. “Together, we have begun the work of ending the era of impunity. These measures show that we will no longer allow international law to be treated as optional, or Palestinian life as disposable.” The measures are not symbolic. They are grounded in binding obligations under international law — including the International Court of Justice’s July 2024 advisory opinion declaring Israel’s occupation unlawful, and September 2024’s UN General Assembly Resolution ES-10/24, which gave states a 12-month deadline to act. UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory Francesca Albanese called them “a momentous step forward.” “The Hague Group was born to advance international law in an era of impunity,” said South Africa’s Foreign Minister, Ronald Lamola. “The measures adopted in Bogotá show that we are serious — and that coordinated state action is possible.” The response from Washington was swift — and revealing. In a threatening statement to journalists, a US State Department spokesperson accused The Hague Group of “seeking to isolate Israel” and warned that the US would “aggressively defend our interests, our military, and our allies, including Israel, from such coordinated legal and diplomatic” actions. But instead of deterring action, the threats have only clarified the stakes. In Bogotá, states did not flinch. They acted — and they invite the world to join them. The deadline for further states to take up the measures is now two months away. And with it, the pressure is mounting for governments across the world — from Brazil to Ireland, Chile to Spain — to match words with action. As Albanese said, “the clock is now ticking for states — from Europe to the Arab world and beyond — to join them.” This is not a moment to observe. It is a moment to act. Share the Joint Statement from Bogotá and popularise the six measures. Write to your elected representative and your government and demand they sign on before 20 September. History was made in Bogotá. Now, it’s up to all of us to ensure it becomes reality, that Palestinian life is not disposable and international law is not optional. The era of impunity is coming to an end. Palestine is not alone. In solidarity, The Progressive International Secretariat
