toys

I have bought a new toy to cheer me up - apparently it's absolutely guaranteed to thrill.  Probably have to charge the battery first though.

My iphone arrives tomorrow!

I shall clearly be the last person in the world not to own one.

That doesn't worry me.

Christopher said...

Congratulations. Meanwhile maybe you could think about getting Dave to design and build a pigeon-loft so that you can communicate with him?

Zig said...

Dave - don't worry perhaps your mother will lend you hers.

Chris - yes! That's a fantastic idea - I'd love a pigeon loft - actually I'd prefer a dove cote, you know one of those fancy jobs on a stick. Doves are only posh pigeons aren't they?

I wonder if smoke signals would reach Europe from here? Well, volcanic clouds travel!

Zig, please tell the girls I don't have a textable 'phone!

Vicus Scurra said...

I don't have an iphone either. I won't be able to tell Dave that this is the case, as neither of us have an iphone.

Rog said...

Yayy!!!! No going back now - you will find it truly fulfilling and satisfying.

Get yer Apps out!!!!!

I, Like The View said...

I lived in a house with a dove cote once

if I could make a joke about being knee deep in guano

but I can't

Zig said...

Di - I think they'll email you when they are closer, if you're still ok with that. They're in Byron Bay surfing!

Vic I'll tell him for you.

Dave, Vic doesn't have an iphone.

Rog - I definitely will, tomorrow, when it arrives.

Jax - how lovely! Perhaps I can get iDovecote for my phone, what d'you think?

Zig said...

it hasn't arrived yet . . .*sigh*

Dave said...

I've now been to B&Q and got details of building materials. Now need to draw detailed plans to decide on quantities. Shall I add on enough for Himself to knock up a dovetailed dovecote?

Christopher said...

You will tell us when it arrives, won't you? I for one am standing by - in fact in order to be appropriately dressed for the event I put a cravat on this morning.

Zig said...

Dave - probably not, thanks, his dovetailing is not what it once was I fear.

Chris - nothing else I hope, the cravat is enough.
*reviewing mental image of Chris in nothing but cravat*

I hope it's maroon in colour Chris.
The cravat.

Christopher said...

With arabesques.

Zig said...

Sending this from iphone - bliss

Zig said...

Fuck me it worked!

Christopher said...

Brilliant. Now for the apps:

1. G&T
2. F&N
3. Maroon arabesques
4. Fancy jobs on sticks

Happy playing!

Z said...

Hooray! It's the best thing ever. I think your life crisis will be over any time now. Actually, the worrying thought has just occurred to me that possibly my iPhone is my reason for living.

Surely there's more to life than an iPhone?

Hmm. Surely there is.

I'm iphoneless. Should I be sad?
What colour is it?
(I know they're exceedingly cool because my Eldest had one which was (cool) till he fell into Lake Windermere while surfing with it - no not on it, they're not that cool)
