I don't know if it just me but why is it every time someone uploads a screendump from their smartphones and publishes it online, The battery status of the phone is always on a couple of % and about to run right out?

 

Do people not charge them?

It's because the battery life on them is rubbish, or my HTC is anyway.

 

It went orange just after I uploaded the pic and sent it to you

I remember what my random thought of the day was.

 

Does the face in the moon appear upside down if you look at it in Australia?

Apparently, the children at woodlands primary school wondered that too

Don't know if any of you do it, but why do people like to touch peoples cars, like on the way back to my car at the cotswold tour, some guy was walking around my car trying to open the doors, what the hell? And today at the Imm one of the cars had do not touch and some guy was putting his hands all over it, annoys me a bit.

And today at the Imm one of the cars had do not touch and some guy was putting his hands all over it, annoys me a bit.

 

My old house mate Russ is the son of Neil Preston the guy who built the Twini.

 

Russ once told me that when his dad first took it to a show he had a sign on it that said 'do not touch'. Some guy kept putting his hands on the car and leaning against it which so Russ who was watching the car at the time kept telling the guy "can you stop touching the car please". He said the guy ignored him and ended up knocking the 'do not touch sign' off the roof which chipped the paint on the roof gutter and scratched the bonnet when it fell on it. His dad was not pleased.

 

It annoys me a bit when people lean against my car. I lean against my car when talking to people but then its my car so I can do what I like with it. Its not your car so you can't. One of my mate always leans against it and he wears his wedding ring which I am always conscious about touching my paint work. It never quite does but it does get really close at times which really bugs me.

Yeah some people think a do not touch sign means touch it all you want, and true about the leaning on your car and know one else should.
