CJ

My offer is still there

Hope things are OK friend

Im sure the irish could make an appearance at DragonCol

Branners had spoken to me about this and I would be absolutely thrilled and delighted to be able to meet up with some old mates and to meet the newbies too.

I might even have the v6 turbod mr2 ready depending on the date. Failing that there is always dudes lendsy car

Thats what we like to hear

 

Stay strong CJ!

 

We are all supporting you

And you have to remember - I'm only 54

Wish him well from me please Col

Will do friend

I'm sure he will be as right as ninepence soon enough.

Don't worry folks - tomorrows another day!

As most of you who know me will testify, I bloody hate being miserable and despite my situation I am determined to keep my ebullient self!

So, tomorrow the proper CJ will return!

After a few bad weeks of pain and subsequent treatment I decided to treat myself to a break back to my beloved island of Kos.

I had decided to come for a month as that gave me the opportunity to settle my affairs out here as the chances of living here again were pretty much non existent. Sadly, after just 24 hours, I realise this was a mistake.

When I lived here I had a purpose - working 7 nights a week gives you that - but as a tourist you don't have that and TBH, I'm bored to tears.

The days are fine but the nights are dire. A lack of numbers mean a lack of atmosphere - and the pain has still not gone so that doesn't help either.

I can see me being back in 2 weeks as the old adage of never looking back is certainly true in my case.

Hiya guys

Dude has asked me to pass on a message to tell you that due to a few family issues he may be unavailable for a week or so (and hasn't been last week) and so he is slowly getting through emails and pm's.

I agree with Lyndon 100%. I dread to think what my weekly concoction of meds would cost and as for the treatment and scans etc, well, that has been first rate too.

This week alone I will have / had the following:

Monday - Diabetic clinic

Tuesday - Physio

Wednesday - Radiotherapy

Thursday - MRI scan

Friday - Bone scan

Can you imagine what the cost of that lot comes to?

Took you up on your advice, regret it, I now have a new appreciation of the calibre and quality of moderating within this forum....

 

This is still up for grabs.

 

regards

Did you fall foul of the stupid rule (as I did) whereby you can only advertise the item for sale on that forum and nowhere else?

I have an update notification on my 3gs and do not wish to utilise their offer

How can I cancel the notification so that it doesn't appear as a reminder in my settings? Is it just a case of syncing with itunes and rejecting the update?

Not the kinda thing you should post on sometimes for sale thread IMO mate.

Sense of humour bypass?

That post was obviously in relation to my earlier one which too was tongue in cheek. I have no doubt there was no malice intended

Open to offers

Start a charity donation page. Burn it. Chainsaw it - Simples

I'm sure it is the 3 gs. Will ring her and check.

Hiya friend

I am pretty sure the phone will be a 3GS but on the off chance it is a 4 or 4s (unlikely I know) then I will definitely buy it.

Col

What model is it?

You do realise that your car will now fail an mot ? You need a reflector on the rear of your vehicle somewhere

Will the reflector part not work through the tint? Or is it only shining out that works?

Double post

looks to chavy now

I disagree. On a white car I think that looks very good.

I used to work for Vodafone (a long time ago now) in their Security & Fraud Department!!!

 

Pretty sure they will not touch the handset, just bar the SIM. At the end of the day they want their cash and are not bothered about the handset. Once they get their cash the handset subsidy is paid in full anyway.

 

I also beleive the grey and black lists for IMEI numbers relate only to lost and stolen phones, so as long as the phone is not reported lost or stolen you should be ok.

That's interesting. Maybe I can use this as negotiating tool to get it cheaper.

At the end of the day there is always means to bypass any barring

Just got hold of Surj and he reckons there's a good chance they might bar it.

I guess it's true what they say, if a deal seems too good to be true then it probably is!

I think you may be right. I wonder if a phone call to orange will confirm?

A friend of my son has offered me his second hand Iphone 4s for a very good price. It is currently locked to Orange on a contract and I am led to believe he is in arrears with the account.

My question is, if I buy the phone, can they bar it (as in IMEI) or will they just bar the SIM card and number?

Sitting here in a lot of pain but realising that my decision to cancel was the right one - that doesn't make my feeling of disappointment any less though.

Hope you all have a safe and great weekend.
