    Its fine , I don't use mobiles a lot ,

    Saw a review the other day saying whilst it was a good budget phone " in its day " ....that was then

    Its two years old ff sake , not 1992

    Is it just me ?

    I think the people are gullible and everyone is sucked in these days

    Who needs a new car , phone , TV, sofa , fridge every few years ?

    I don't remember all this stupidity 20 years ago 🤔
    You should get up to date with the latest trends, Sludge you seem to be stuck in the 00’s. Obviously you are a one off.

    Money makes the world go round, as the song goes.
    We are in a situation where if we all stopped buying stuff, the world would be in deep sh*t pretty quickly. But we don't.
    Phones are a separate issue, I think - if you want to run apps, then you need a newish phone.
    No one is making you buy the latest car or tv - people do it because they want to.

    I want the latest upgraded shimano catana spinning rod

    But a rod I bought ten years ago is still going strong

    Most of what we are buying these days comes from China

    Which is fine as its cheap for us over here

    But very bad news for the planet as they are burning fuel like Satan

    Money may make the world go round but one day there won't be a world if we keep on going like we are

    I remember the home game after Ken Thorne's WoC withdrew sponsorship after they went bust and I saw 2 guys who had new shirts on and had cut out the Ken Thorne logo!!

    They did indeed.

    The Ken Thorne stuff was crudely ironed off, the outline still visible, the Leehes pressed on over it.

    Yes, I had one. It was one step up from using Tippex and writing Leekes in permanent marker.

    Re: The modern world

    I tend to look after stuff and keep it for ages, so I try and buy the best and latest that I can stretch to, so it will see me through until it dies.

    However that logic does go out the window with Cars.

    And inevitable that Archimedes supplied the cross for the winner. He got his angles spot on.

    Pythagoras would have something to say about that, Archimedes would most probably have been sent for an early bath.

    Empedocles rejected the idea of any space in the box.
