Gazillions of pounds worth of technology created so that you lot can bounce a conversation off a satellite that 2 old women wouldn't waste time with over the garden fence. But at least they'd be getting some air.
Postscript - got in contact with kodak this afternoon. Totally sound - sending a replacement. Never had this problem at Tesco or Curry's, or John Lewis for that matter. Lesson learned. AND - on reflection a bit of a blouse attack over the Mail article. Male menopause I suppose. Need to stop reading the Mail and Samuel in particular: I'm turning into my dad. But it is ****, which is a pity, because although I totally oppose its political stance it's the only tabloid i could read, and I liked the easyish sudoko and consumer section (good on pensions, insurance and so forth). I read Hitchens on Sunday, though I disagree totally I enjoy the 'stimulation'. But the ****ing sports section isn't 'stimulating' because i disagree with them - it's depressing and annoying because it's tacky, annoying and shabbily written. And mostly lies.
