when residents come up trumps

[music4essex]

Yesterday while out on delivery had the misfortune of dropping my mobile,
I had been under pressure with the dim/dom meeting me to see how I was getting on and following me, anyway they went off
I was doing this road, that is like a long culde sac and I cycle an walk parts of it, anyway it had been raining and I had waterproofs on,, it started to get hot and took them off and somewhere my phone had dropped out of it.

when i got home there was a message from work saying that my mobile , then it said the name of the road, but then the answermachine cut out, I tried ringing the office about 5 times and got no reply,

My son and I later went to the road and walked around the houses asking if they had seen my mobile, but did not have any luck,

when i walked into work in the callers cage was my phone, it turns out that one of my customers in that road picked it up and as I don't have a lock on it saw my pic with my son on it and took it too the office,

So today i wrote a note to them and thanked them , but a lot of other folks kept asking me if I had found it and how nice my son was, that bought a smile to my face needed it after my last few weeks with dom

You'll have to tip your customers this xmas rather than the other way round.

come on admit it you've got a Nokia 3100!

No doubt would have been different if it had been an iPhone 4 or some such!

[TrueBlueTerrier]

Or a Motorola Dyna-Tac

If he's anything like my Daughter, then he will be.

My step daughter has a Blackberry and its never out of her hand. She's on this BMS (like texting) all day and we have to take the phone away at night or she would stay on it.

As for old Nokies there great I am heavy on phones as i drop them a lot and not keen on touch screens so i get the "hand me downs" as everyone else in the family seems to upgrade every year

Ive got a Nokia 5300 which does the job

[andy2007]

I've been surprised at how tough the Blackberries are. I got one, just over a year ago. And apart from some slight cosmetic damage on one side, it's still like new. Despite the fact, that I generally only get a year out of phones, before they fall apart. Although to be fair: I've only managed to get one, because it's on contract. There's no way I'd be able to afford one on pay as you go.
