Can still use that bad boy to listen to Radio 4 Longwave.

And bargain holidays abroad

Ha ha ha
When me and the now GLW first got together we booked a holiday off teletext.
She spent almost 20 minutes on the phone sorting out everything and at the finish of the call the agent on the other end asked her what the weather was like in Manchester as where she was it was glorious.
Turns out the holiday was booked directly with a travel firm in Malta!

I don't understand what you are ranting about.

Don't you just do ebay on your phone and take pictures as your are listing something, piece of piss

Or,are you trying sell photographs of your wife, or even trying to sell her without her knowing?
