Success is getting what you want; happiness is liking what you get

He wore the old one out

Robin’s cell phone was playing up.  Items on the screen kept jumping around, and it got to the stage when he couldn’t even power it off.  There was something drastically wrong with the buttons across the bottom of the screen.  Nothing for it but to go shopping and buy a new one.  This is what he came home with.  A bright and shiny Oppo.  For a small fee, the phone nerd put all of his apps and contacts on the new phone.

Robin didn’t feel quite so bad when the young person serving told him that this was a common fault on his previous phone.  Mind you, he uses it a lot, to check the news and the weather and all sorts of other things.  Not like me, I’m the sort of person who only uses my cell phone to make the occasional phone call.  And as for texting – I hate it.

Things are ticking along at home.  Plenty to keep us busy, plus a cat to keep us in line.  Gemma has decided that she is really comfortable sitting on the TV cabinet in the evenings.  She likes to keep an eye on the TV screen, particularly when all sorts of things are whizzing by.  She’s not really in the way, she tells us, can’t we just look around and over her?

Who is in charge of this house?

Of course the cat is the pack leader! Fortunately, she's not huge and appears to squish herself up to quite a small package, Jenny!

You do realise that we are merely the servants of our cats. They certainly like to rule the household. Just as well they are so loveable. I’m sure Robin will be happy to have a new phone. Good luck working out it’s new features. That’s my least favourite part of an upgrade.
