Ok, Ok. I give in already! ;D I don't know if it's the lens or not but I tried to take the plastic cover thing off and it didn't work, and then I broke it more because I made another crack  but oh well. I can't find the phone you're on about Vadim, where did you see it? I think I need a new one now!  Anyway, back to song lyrics... The deal I was referring to is HERE, Frankie. My dad went for the T280i (not in pink I hasten to add, as he'd have killed me! - he's definitely not in touch with his feminine side). It's a lot sturdier than the £5 one but I've just bought my stepson one of the £5 ones as he'll break any phone. £5 I can live with! The £5 one does have poorer sound quality though. Or, bribe someone and get one of THESE. |

Vadim! Thank you!
If it wasn't for you starting a conversation about phones, and getting me inspired to get a new one, I wouldn't have my new awesome phone, which I love by the way! lol
It's not as good as the Nokia N96 of course but it's still great, it's an LG viewty, all touchscreen, with Mp3 Player, and a 5MP camera, lol thanks!
And it's only £15 a month with unlimited texts! ;D I'm so happy!

Well, yeah. ;D But I'm not old enough to get a job, and I'm not getting a paper round! So my dad has to pay. |

>But I'm not old enough to get a job, and I'm not getting a paper round!<
Why does it seem no-one wants a paper round these days?
My local newsagent is desperate to get anyone to do it (and what he's got certainly aren't as young as schoolkids). And the two other newsagents in the area have given up and don't do deliveries.
What has the world come to?

I'll tell you.
On paper rounds these days, you have to work everyday including Sundays, and you only get paid £12 a week, and that won't buy you a coke and an ice lolly!
You have to be there at a certain time everyday, and you can't be ill. My friend had one, she had to be on her rounds at 4 everyday, and one week she had the flu and couldn't get out of bed, and she got fired.
So there pretty bad. Plus I cba. ;D

As for the paper round; I can see why you'd not want to do one, Frankie. I used to do one on a Sunday morning - 1 day per week - and I received £6 (easily enough for coke, sweets and 20 somethings I shouldn't've). To be fair though, those that did Mon-Sat only received £6! The bag was very heavy on a Sunday though (again I blame the fuddies wanting their bloody Sunday Times!). What it does teach you, however, is a bit of work ethic. It will help you, IMO, later on in life when you really do have to pay that contract yourself. Enjoy it whilst it lasts, Frankie, 'cos it wont be forever! |

;D I know, but I go to air cadets ever Monday and Thursday, so I've got to have my uniform ironed, cleaned and up to scratch every time I go. All this week I'm there learning drill for the wing drill competition and the volley ball competition (we do more as-well). And then there's school, and I have too look after my lizards. So I think that's enough responsibility for one childhood! |
