Your fault ... your clothes, so you're responsible for the pockets or rather what's left in them. ;-) We know you just wanted a new phone.

You know what this means, Manc.

Right! You're going to have to take your yearly bath early so you're as clean as your photo.

Aye, well I normally do check...such is life...and naaa...I liked the kacky little nokia I had before, got a rather kack motorola replacement, has to be the naffest phone I've ever had, menu sucks, games suck, and that stupid low battery beep just keeps on going....hmmm...

hate the stupid things and hardly ever use it, hence cheapo shite phone....if I could find my old sonyericson charger, I'd use that phone instead, it's donkeys years old now, but still a lot nicer.

I am not worried about my trip, just posting because I am an arse and need to vent.
Ah mate nevermind I've put countless $5 bills and higher in the wash.
Have you considered phoning whoever it is you're flying with to give 'em a heads up?
btw how long are you going to Blighty for?

Would help if the guys unloaded the machines, hung up the laundry/put the clothes in the dryer + turned on the dryer. Best of all, guys should fold their own laundry.

But could we trust them with an iron? That's the worst job.
