[09:15] Happy Australia Day!
Well, no holiday for me this year - for some reason the English don't recognise Australia Day as a legitimate holiday. C'est la vie. I hope everyone back home had a great day!
In other exciting news: a) I'm a genius and b) I have a "new" phone.
- According to this here Intelligence Test I am a certifiable genius. I'm not sure how reliable that actually is so I'm not going to add it to my resume just yet! For those of you who'd like to compare geniusnesness I've managed to nut out 21 of the 33 questions over a 24 hour period (that's 24 hours since discovery and posting that also included sleeping and working - I haven't dedicated my life to it or anything).
- I've been given a new phone! Someone at work felt sorry for me (and got sick of the ear piercing ring tome) and donated it. He goes through at least 4 phones a year so he has plenty of spares!
The details: it's acutally an old phone, a Sony T610. If you've been paying attention you'll know that this is the same model as the one I lost - my favourite phone ever! I am VERY happy to have put the detestable Samsung A300 to bed!
The menu system has been mauled customised for the Orange phone network over here (in a similar fashion to the way Vodafone "value added" to my one back home) but now that I've got no money (or warranty) invested in the thing, I'm going to have a go at upgrading the firmware and see if I can get back to a vanilla install. I just have to work out how...
