    BUMP because I think Ive finally knacked the phone :( Left it out in the rain!

    I was on the phone in the garden last evening talking to someone I was quite excited about.
    I must have been so distracted that when I put the phone down to do some deadheading, I forgot about it. It took people hammering the landline hours later to realise my phone was sitting outside in the rain.

    I think its a soaking too far; despite being dried out as usual, the phone is now misbehaving alarmingly. I cant text or answer calls because the keys are now mis- aligned. I press 0 and 2 comes on the screen.

    I suppose the silliest thing I ever left in a dress pocket was a couple of Murray mints, after going through the wash they completely 'welded' the pocket together!!!:DOH:

    Apparently it is illegal to put cash knowingly in a washing machine. Its called laundering money

      Stupid things to leave in pockets!

      It's illegal to deface any money any how.

      Now Ziggy, those plastic notes.......I can't say I've seen any, :WINK1: but thought you might like to take a look at our 'Monopoly' money. We can't use it in the UK but can exchange it in the banks there now.

      Shiney, the notes haven't been updated since I moved here 19 years ago.
      We still use pound notes aswell, it's a long time since the UK saw those. :heehee:

      Sorry Sheal, i've taken those notes down temporarily while I try to work out how to put specimin over the top of them. Not allowed to reproduce bank notes without it on.

      No offence meant.

      Edit : I haven't got the software for watermarking them so i'm going to have to leave them hidden. Sorry.

      It's not one of mine (just something recently caught from Clevedon Pier), but don't worry as when it comes to laundering money anything fishy will do.
