Getting a text from the Carphone Warehouse saying that the iPhone 7 and 7 plus will be available to buy tomorrow if I want to rush to the store and buy it, theyâll even give me ÂŁ200 for my old phone.
Despite the fact that I am 6 months in to a 2 year contract and would have to pay a fortune for the phone!!
Should be alright as long as nobody squeezes their lemon into your drink.

Dropping technology.
Mostly, itâs just a costly repair or a new piece of hardware a few months early. I went one better today. I did not smash my tablet. I did, however, leave my bag open and as I was disembarking for a quick smoke break at Reading, I contrived a way to get a Nexus 9 under the 15:52 to Bournemouth.
At around 15:44.
Itâs probably too far to reach, and even if it wasnât - Iâm a southerner. I respect and fear the live rail, so I ask a guard for help. All credit to him, he arranges for a man with a grabber to fetch it. He also got the train held up.
Most importantly of all, he had the good grace not to announce that the train was running a couple of minutes late because a miniature yeti had just tried to install Android 7.0 on railway gravel.

WTF is it with some BMW drivers? We have spent a few days in Warwick. On the M20 on the way up we were undertaken by one who then swerved in front of us to overtake the car we were overtaking. On the way back yesterday the same thing happened and the BMW could be seen weaving its way using all three lanes for undertaking and over taking into the distance on the M40 as if he was Lewis Hamilton working his way from the back of the grid. Stupid cunts!

Renewing your monthly train ticket at a local train station that you happen to be close to, one weekend. I have had an annual or monthly ticket for years, all with my railcard number on it. Finding after one week that the ticket is not working in the electronic barriers I stop at Paddington to get it replaced. No, they cant help me, they say, because Paddington is a GWR station, and I bought the ticket at a South West Trains station. âSo, we have no actual record of itâ they say. But I point out that my ticket is actually for travel to, and from, and via, Paddington and is valid. âYep sorry about that, we still dont have a record of it and you need to go to a SWT station like Waterloo or Claphamâ. As if my commute is not long or costly enough, now I need to travel 45 mins extra .
Couldnât you hire a servant to muster for you, Phil?

Iâm domiciled at my mumâs house at the moment for the homegame matchday treble.
Everyone in my fam, apart from me, is fucking shit at getting up in the morning.
I may have told this story before, but at certain points, my mumâs house is a bit like the opening scenes of Back to the Future. Shitloads of alarms, from equally annoying bits of tech. I once pointed out the BTTF similarities.
âIâve only got sixâ, she said.
This morning, at 7:00am, sheâs down to five. Theyâre all going off. I would expect any reasonable person to wake up on hearing one alarm, let alone five. At 7:24am I finally accept the fact that she is, in fact, incapable of hearing alarms, and decide to go wake her up. My baby bro probably has work. Those alarms are probably going off for a reason.
The old dear has not traditionally been a morning person. The prospect of waking her up no longer holds the terror it once did, but still, youâve got to handle it delicately. Sheâs still dangerous. With one foot in the room, I enquire in a low voice, about 10x lower in volume than the alarm cacophony, âMum?â.
She wakes up immediately. She retains the ability to wake up on hearing a kidsâ voice at low volume, even if itâs 41 years old.
As I said earlier, Iâm the only person in my family that wakes at an earlier hour. Baby bro is arguably _even more _allergic to alarms.
How the fuck do these people manage when Saints arenât playing at home?
