| 1165695 | 2010-12-31 20:23:00 | A bit OT - again ;-) G'day R2x1I can only dream, despite finding as many ways to make unsolicited emails more a hassle for the sender than for me, they just a keep a sending! you still connect to the web by a stick? How's life in the travelling light show? Using Gmail is a pretty powerful Spam stopper for me, other providers don't seem to be able to match their efficiency at discombobulating the rapscallions. I still have the Vodem, but it is used extremely rarely now - on average 20 or 30 MB / month. That makes it stupidly expensive at around $2 / MB. (One month it was in excess of $60 / MB!) I think it is time I started using the cell-phone as a mobile, since 2Degrees' rates are much better for small amounts of data. You seem to have chosen a rather effective method of isolating yourself from Chch's bad vibrations. I heard a rumour that those earthquakes were triggered by local lithosphere overloading due to large amounts of cable that hadn't been wound up? |

| 1165697 | 2010-12-31 20:47:00 | I had a blank message left on my answering machine at 5:40 pm last night. Maybe they rang while I was out. How disappointing!!! | Bobh (5192) | ||
| 1165698 | 2010-12-31 23:40:00 | you can't call 0800 & 0900 numbers internationally can you? I called a 1800 number (the equivalent of our 0800) in the States via Skype once. Worked a treat! |

| 1165699 | 2011-01-01 01:16:00 | I had one a couple of weeks ago. Even though I insisted I do NOT have a windows machine and that I had a Mac, he still wanted me to "check my windows files"! So I just told him straight that he was a scammer and that very soon he would be tired of ringing people because they all know about the scam. He was pretty pissed off and then he hung up. LL |
