Actually Joe.. that's not a bad thing to do as college girls are more likely to get a better discount and/or additional bits thrown in for nowt. When we change our mobile phones or tariffs, we send the daughter in to do the negotiations as she always gets a good deal :lol:

It's got slightly more complicated now as Cyberbrat has seen through the smokescreen of my old iPad and has caught the whiff of new technology in the air at Speedbird Mansions :doh:

So his mum reckons his need is more urgent than hers so No.1 priority is to get a new laptop for him, get a new touchpad on his, pass it on to his mum and when the dust settles, we'll see what's left for me :dunno:

But if I ignore all that and focus on ME, I'll probably wait until August and get a 3rd generation i5 or i7 with W7 and an upgrade option. Perhaps I should look for one at Merry Hill and borrow miss Booker to negotiate for me :Dance:

I'm sure she'd do you proud Ian :lol:

Why not send Cyberbrat out to get a job enabling him/her to buy whatever they want with their earnings! :worried:

Are you serious? Who's going to save the World from aliens, zombies, bosses and terrorists? If I take him off the x-box we'll be overrun! What are you thinking? :-O

You're right of course ;) Should you ever consider dropping the suggestion into any future conversation, make sure you have a defibrillator handy :lol:

No, Joe. Not an Island Paradise Trip, old chum 8)

You win a link to a definition of the word 'irony'.

Congratulations! (that's also ironic - in case you weren't sure :lol: )
