Tinkerbell Landing

On the left, my favourite of all time.

Last Wednesday evening I went to Tesco with my mobile in my back pocket and returned without it.

I went back immediately and had a look around, including under fixtures which caused some consternation and conversations along the lines of

“Eee pet are you all right?” to me lying on the floor.

“I’ve lost my phone and thought it might have got knocked under here.”

“Eee no pet, that’s awful, best of luck.”

I left my details with Customer Services in case it was found.

Went back again on Thursday morning but still no joy.

The good news is O2 have sent me a sim-card with the same number and I've bought a new Nokia from Argos (£25); which is a great relief as it's the emergency contact/confirmation number for more things than I can remember.

The bad news is that all the contact numbers are gone and I’m having to source and input them again. Fortunately most friends have texted me so I could easily save their number.

 

Mrs Eft's response to my email about the new mobile was

"Bad luck. But I see you've purchased another quality piece of kit to replace it. X"

Unfortunately there is no “Rooster” in the choice of ringtones so I’ve had to make do with “Urgent” which sounds like a phone in an old American film.

 

The lost mobile’s text tone was one easily missed bleep.

The mobile before last had a tinkling text tone which Fester once described as 

“like Tinkerbell f**king landing.”

I’ve chosen a similar but shorter text tone …

“Like Tinkerbell landing on one leg.”
