When I left my previous employer, I got a code to move the number of my business phone, to my new business phone. I wanted to do this as it was easier than telling everybody a new number. Or so I thought. My new employer has a rather complex way of ordering mobiles, so I had to wait nearly three weeks for them to supply me one. As an interim I purchased a cheap ‘pay as you go’ so I was contactable. Then the new mobile (blackberry) turned up, and so I had two phones and three numbers. Today, my old number was supposed to be transferred onto my new blackberry. Great I thought, I can get back to simplicity, and just carry the one phone. Or so I thought. The number transferred, but I couldn’t receive calls, although I could make them, and I couldn’t text….doh! The best part of the day later they have sorted out. I have one phone with my old number… but what a palava.

Ellie played football for her school today (mixed team). They lost 8-0  but she seemed very pleased with her efforts, and assured me she made some tackles. Bless her.
