    I am tempted. Very tempted.

    I may wait to see reports.

    OH is not keen on me getting one. He is worried about the temptation to read text messages when driving.

    Ah yes, the iPedometer.

    My old boss had the Samsung watch. Said it was a nightmare as everyone could read his messages in meetings.

    Did you get the $13,000 one?

    I've started deliberately leaving my phone at home for certain situations. I'm far too attached to it.

    A watch is definitely not what I want.

    Two nuns are driving through Transylvania.

    Suddenly Count Dracula swoops down and lands on the bonnet of their car, glaring in at them.

    1st nun: "Quick, show him your Cross!"

    2nd nun: "Oi! Get off the !!!!!!! car!"

    At the Passover dinner, you are supposed to drink your glass of wine whilst leaning to the left. So, we discussed the benefits of the mansion tax, ending non-dom tax relief, funding for the NHS .....
