I wave my private parts at my aunty

This is what deservedly happens when parents think it's 'cute' to dress their kids identically: how else can a boy be the centre of attention?

Special moments

  • Jul. 5th, 2009 at 11:45 AM

East Yorkshire newlyweds Claire and Stuart Linley opened their wedding presents - to find they had been given 24 toasters. They had asked for cash or vouchers from their 160 guests, but realised something was amiss when they received a pile of gifts all in same-shaped boxes.
I'm guessing Claire and Stuart come from near Hull and don't need cash: they need new friends; friends with a hint of imagination.  Does anybody give a toaster as a wedding present anymore?  Got me thinking - if I re-married (and I'm not opposed to the idea anymore), I don't think I'd expect wedding presents.  What could friends give a couple getting married again in their 50s?  I think I'd get my friends to spend the money on booking a hotel room for the night so everybody is there in the one place and we can get together the next morning.  It's not as if the 'honeymoon night' is going to be of significance: god knows, I'd have already slept with the guy a thousand times by then!

Mobile phone problems

  • Jul. 5th, 2009 at 10:42 AM

I've got to stop using "Dictionary" on my mobile phone.  The font size of the text is so small that I can't see it clearly and rely on "Dictionary" to get my message across.  This is has been my undoing previously and continues to be.  I sent text to Twin1, "Pick up some bottom buds from shop".  Of course, I meant 'cotton buds' and Twin1 understood but in the wrong hands, that message could be seriously misinterpreted!

I often see ads on TV claiming that if you text your name and that of your partner to some 1300 number you will obtain a compatibility rating; or your horoscope; or your mobile will become an xray screen!  It costs and continues to cost as you will receive subsequent messages and incur a charge each time.  Obviously, it's a scam but I bet there are a lot of people who fall for it.  The one I saw today left me somewhat speechless: text your name and your year of birth and discover the year of your death.  While this information would have been most beneficial to Michael Jackson about 10 days ago, to other people it could instill worry and paranoia.  There are gullible people out there who will believe it so hopefully, these con artists send out 'dates' many, many years from now.  How do people get away with such rip-offs?
