    Give it a bit more time twink, and try putting it in an airing cupboard. Its harder for juice (or anything with sugars) to dry out. ;)

    Let me know if its okay after this, or we can go to plan b :D

    Is there any flicker of life in your moby?? Have you dropped or banged it recently??? How old is it??? How well was your battery charging prior to it dyin???

    Your dream is very reflective of whats happening at home and how your feeling about it. hug2.gif Big hugs hon, i'm always about if you need me ;)

    thanks huni x

    well there is life in it, it died yesterday and managed to get it working again by taking it apart then putting it back x3 times,. but today its just gone its been in for repair 4 times now, but can no longer bring it back for repair as they keep fobbing me off and have moved away from sundrland to home on iom, its a lovely phone to. any ideas??

    yeah your idea about my dream sounds spot on, but know its also about something else thats been haunting me for 3 years , but yes the stress at home would explain the dream coming back.

    oh help needed think i have just got myself into a load of trouble??? :o

    What make? it sounds like your battery might have died - it depends though on the age of the phone, the model and the make. Some phones are cheaply made and others are not.

    Few things i have to ask - has your phoen had any bangs, dropped it? been accessable to moisture or water? are you charging the battery full? when you got the phone, did you charge the phone fro 16 hours?

    in my experiance of phones, i would say that a mobile should last approx 3 years but people tend to upgrade every year. Ive just got the Nokia 6111 and i love it after having my Nokia 6610i.

    To be honest - when a mobile phone starts to play up, it isnt worth paying to get them fixed. It costs more to fix them than buy a new one these days. You can get a very cheap phone on ebay or you can get a cheap one from even shops. virgin have a cheap phone at the moment. If you are on a contract, are you still within your contract period (12 / 18 months) if you are not, and your contract has expired (i mean past the minimum term you have the contract) call up your provider and talk with them, and tell them you are thinkgin of leaving because you can get a new phone with a new contract as your phone is broken - they will, because they wish to keep your custom, offer you a brand new phone if you stay - and to this, you can accept.

    If you are PAYG then i would say look on ebay for new phones - i got mine on ebay - it was from an orange contract. What people do is they get a new phone from the contract but they already own a phone they are used to so change the simcards and they put the "new" phone on ebay - so it is second hand but has never been used. i got mine and the battery hadnt been opened nor had the phone been removed from protective packaging and i only paid £112 total (inc post) for it - when it should have cost me £170.

    wow i cant half talk lol.

  • I knew you would know about phones Mc. I hate them. I hate it when people phone me when I am doing something else. I find it can be very moneywasting. My friend phones her oh about 6 times a day. I rarely speak to my OH!!!!!!!!! Na just if I want to get in touch I will phone someone when they are at home unless of course meeting up with people.

    Due to the sun - a couple of the images are a bit over exposed - to which i never altered in the camera before i took them because of the time scale - they were all moving all the time - once i changed settings, they had gone.

    All shots taken with Nikon D50 + 70-300mm (except man on bike which was 18-55mm) - all shots in manual with apature of between F4 and F8 - shutter of between 1/30 and 1/125 ISO 200. done no pp work on them except last one to remove white blob of a human head.

    If you wish to see what i look like - check the first pic out - i am in it - if you look in the woman on right hand side, on her head collander - you will see me :p i am near the triangle and the circle LOL!

    thanks mc, your very good with info. :D

    its a nokia 5140, lovely phone, it hasnt really had any bangs recently though i am sure i have dropped it in the time i have had it as had it for about a year, have been lookin on ebay and they seem quite expensive, some reaching 40 pounds, i got mine new for bot 60.

    im not sure if i am charging the battery full, wont even let me try and charge it now though, just a shame as it a nice phone.

    had another nokia phone old brick type thing, and thats lasted bot 5 years, (am using this 1 at the mo)but this recent one has barely lasted a year, its been faulty for months.

    my phone is how everyone gets in touch with me, my social, work and everyone else, lol., it is always kept on just incase anyone needs anything.

    nice photographs mc, where are they off, do you just use still cameras, i have a 35mm slr camera, and when i have the money going to buy a 6x7.

    CG me just having bad time at mo. just got this guy on me back who bit freaky. and it scaring me a little.
