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.

      GALA 2026

      By alice · Posted

      Some people don’t like it, some people will love it.  It doesn’t bother me at all. In fact I quite like it. I do not like assumptions you make about ‘elderly people’.

      GALA 2026

      By Saranne · Posted

      This concerns me as it essentially disregards the significant number of people who do experience a high level of disruption because of the event.  While it's great that you personally are not inconvenienced, this is absolutely not the case for a great many residents many of whom are elderly or who do not have private gardens and rely on the park.   Great that you have a PHD in ecology but might also be worth reading the report into the environmental impact of Gala which paints a rather different story to yours. This comes round every year with a request to extend. This seems to me to be a distraction to steer everyone away from the main event. However, Southwark Council and Councillor Catherine Rose in particular must bear responsibility for what is effectively privatisation of our community space.  I requested data on the results of the last consultations and had to use a subject access request to get it.  In 2024 the council received 111 responses of which 108 were negative. The event went ahead. Last year they received 136 of which 82 were negative and 34 said only with major changes (which did not happen).   The impact of the event on the community and the enviroment is well-documented.  The council has so far refused to supply data on the demographics of the attendees but it doesn't take much to work out that this is largely single under 30s from out of borough judging by the steady stream of people from the station.   Please do take time to protest and also to email Events as we try to hold the council accountable for their disregard of the public consultation results.

      Carpenter (and general builder) recommendation

      By Kesc · Posted

      I'd like to recommend Marius who recently built bespoke alcove cabinets and bookshelves for me at a very reasonable price. All was done quickly, the units are fitted perfectly and he tidied up after himself everyday. Marius: 07459 195 564
