ok so another entry from me!
I got my new phone yesterday, the stunning Nokia N70. But the mess around I had to do to get it!
I ordered the phone from the orange website on Tuesday, the delivery driver rang my doorbell on friday morning, at 9.30am (its not very often I see that time of the day) so anyway I get to the door, and he's already gone and left the delivery note. So I called the delivery company, they said I could wait till Monday to have it delivered again, or I could come and pick it up from the Depot. I asked them what time it would be back at the depot for, she told me 11.30am, and said she take it herself so it would be there waiting for me when I get there. So I hop on the next train to Elgin (the next town). I don't have a clue how to get arounf Elgin, I've been there 3 times. The woman on the phone told me it was behind McDonalds. So I get into Elgin I call my mate James to come and meet me (he lives in Elgin) but alas he was in Forres (where I live) he was making a surprise visit, darn him. So anyway he calls his dad to get precise directions and calls me back, takes me 45 mins to get there, but that's not bad at all, So I walk into the Depot and my package is there waiting for me and I walk out with it. Things seemed to go to smoothley normally when I take ventures like this something goes wrong, any by this time it's 12.30pm the train back to Forres leaves at 1.05pm the trin I had to get to get to work on time. So I rushed to the train station, and got lost on the way!! it was 1.10pm when I got to the train station, I thought great, I knew something like this would happen, next thing the announcer comes on "The next train to arrive at platform 1 is the train to Inverness (my train) which is running 20 minutes late we apologise for the inconvenience" Inconvenience??? somebody was on my side!! SO I got to work on time, so I'm all happy. Except for the built in Orange Firmware on the phone which does my head in. but anyhoo. bye!
