    Tenth Anniversary
    You can't in a word. :(
    I too have an HTC Desire and it can't run the android OS that MSL needs. MSL needs Jellybean iirc which I tried to install but it wouldn't let me as it's not supported.

    Sorry to be the bringer of bad news. :(

    Borricks, I thought that having a decent phone would be ok!! MSL need to sort themselves out, tw4ts!!!

    On my next trip to visit my family in Canada I went along to a baby shower

    Another thing I thought would never catch on in England .....

    Then to a flea market our equivalent of a car boot which I thought was like

    an outside jumble sale that English folk would never do ......

    Yes turnip was really hard to scrape out and we used to spread the

    newspaper over the table to catch the soil as freshly pulled from

    Granddads allotment but it was harder to remove the newspaper print

    that was left on the kitchen table ..... And then the excitement of

    making a guy for bonfire night the kids today have costumes the lot

    I remember on my first visit to Canada they had the Halloween out

    fits etc etc and I thought this would never catch on in England. ...

    . Doh

    Yep.....putting a guy in a wheelbarrow and knocking on people's doors asking for a 'penny for the guy'. I wasn't actually allowed to do this but I did anyway and lost loads of pocket money and gained lots of extra jobs for doing so :o

    Things that are money spinners will always find their way here. Same as the baby showers we were talking about last night and things like school proms.......

    Oh they do. There's an indoor version of one in Bristol daily, St Nicholas's market. It is :eek:

    But worse are the ones we used to have to help out at as kids. Expensive jumbie sales full of crap that no one with any sense would buy, let alone pay so much for :eek:

    TBF though, the Desire is over 4 years old now and much slower than newer phones on the market. I'd be concerned about slowing down of everything if I installed a new, bigger OS that's not really designed for it.

    It's only a game

    Yes definately turnip (or neeps) Big and yellow inside. Swede is smaller and white inside. Well where I come from anyway. I think different areas may refer to them the other way round?

    Yep, I'm from down souf so it's the other way round ;). Never heard the term neeps though. Remember borrowing my dads Stanley knife though :eek:

    Penny for the guy has been going on round here for a good coupe of weeks. Two little gob - enter S word with "es" on the end hanging round outside the co-op at the top of my road, hassling little old ladies :mad:

    I went to a baby shower last year. It was awful, I'm still sure that I was only invited to make up the numbers :o pretty daft inviting someone who doesn't have kids :A

    That was when I did the sweetie tree :D

    Well as someone who does have kids, I can't imagine anything worse than being happy and sociable in the latter stages of pregnancy. You feel the size of a large elephant and don't want to do anything but eat loads and sleep when you're not eating :D

    I remember your sweetie tree, it was very good. Wasn't it a family member? Im sure that's why you were invited ;) Id have demolished that tree when I was pregnant.....so really it was the ideal present ;):D
