Not the world's best timing

[andrewducker]

I left my phone on the bus today.  With almost no charge on it, so that I called it twice (to no avail) and then it turned itself off.

So I've called Lost Property for the bus company, but they won't get anything until tomorrow morning.

And I wouldn't actually mind that much in some ways, because I'm able to upgrade to an HTC Desire as of this weekend, and three days without a phone would probably actually be good for me.

However, I'm also off on holiday for 5 days as of Friday, and negotiating being picked up at trains stations, etc. is much easier with a mobile, as is keeping in touch with Julie while I'm away.

Fingers crossed the phone turns up for tomorrow morning.  If not I'll be making some sort of emergency phone provision...

I hope it wasn't a top secret next generation iPhone. Otherwise, you know, Apple might try to throw you in jail.

I thought they just came around, beat you up and threw you out of a window?

Emergency phone provision ... Tesco are selling PAYG phones for under £6, that's right, under SIX POUNDS.

That might actually be the perfect way to solve things. That's less than my insurance surplus would cost, and probably simpler too. I just need to pop down and pick one up. Thanks!
