Xann Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Taken with the shittiest camera in the World in an extremely unglamorous part of town. Unfortunate product placement to boot. No messing with filters, colours or cropping though. Might see if I can remove the branding at some point? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xann Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 It's a 30 quid phone with a mahoosive but shit memory card. It's deep into the addresses now and takes up to 40 seconds to capture a shot. No point in going for split second timing. It takes the most wonderfully crap selfies. Everyone looks confused Pretty sure I took the World's worst selfie last year. My friend's kids rang the house, *awestruck that I'd put it on Facebook. * My interpretation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got an i-phone something, but I don't know which one, I think it might be a 5 or a 5 something. It's bright blue and contains absolutely no music, not even that U2 virus. The kids were disgusted to learn that I'd declined an upgrade from the office as this one still works. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xann Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 It's handy having a stash of tunes now and then. Useful for outdoor events, hired vehicles and wasting your life on platforms, hoping Southern might supply a train at some point? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife's niece has gave me her old phone, because she had a new one for xmas. I've already got the iPhone 5, I think. Anyway the phone given to me is better than mine, and the middle button works, unlike mine. My phone just isn't crap enough yet for me to stop using it.

This shop just decided it for me. We'll have a second day and start it here. Good job, well done. If you're planning to stay local I can highly recommend The Dorset Square hotel.

Plus free wifi (which I think should be free anyway) and priority booking when they tell some punters they're full, which has been brilliant when I've played that card. Pre check in and express check out (I think a lot of this is open to anyone these days). It's me that does the majority of hotel stop overs in the office, I've clocked up about 350 euros worth of credit at the moment, so it's as close to a freebie weekend as it gets. Best value is usually to stay out at Heathrow, commute in, park on a drive in Hammersmith and tube it to the middle of town. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I was really overwhelmed with London. The place just has everything by the bucket load. I am a very indecisive person anyway, and just like things to be simple, so being stood in the middle of London really clogged by head up. It's a great city though, and I'd love to go back for a weekend at some point. Very expensive, but it is what it is. How people from the sticks settle there, I don't know, but I imagine it's a great life, if that's your sort of thing. A day in brum gives me a headache. My missus was laughing at me all day, because apparently I was like Crocodile Dundee, when he first goes to New York. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
