We personally don't although up the road there's a kind of valley that works well, so all the locals pitched in to get some and a repeater hooked up, so that covers that area. Also means we can tap into it on LSAR callouts... :P Round here though, nothing like that works. We could resort to PLBs, but if you're healthy enough to activate it and wait for help, then you can probably get home...

If I go anywhere without it in my pocket, or bag or car. Or just in general, especially when I'm by myself I'm a little nervous. There are a lot of dead spots around here, but if I needed to call someone in an emergency and I didn't have it, or something, I would freak. As you can't just hunt someone down to ask for help these days...Otherwise I don't use it for normal phone reasons, I don't text anymore and don't call - just answer it if it were to ring - uncommon. It's just gotta be there for just in case....<br /><br />Haha, we do live the same lives! :P The bank doesn't tell me anymore, I have to figure it out for myself. And it would be sad if I had to pay them to print something out that said I had no money ;) lolKaygerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01734123708037191756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6994425731906758290.post-51335635149873144462015-09-04T19:31:37.175+12:002015-09-04T19:31:37.175+12:00There was something on TV I saw once, general doc&...There was something on TV I saw once, general doc's and a cat was mentioned...this family kept having random items of clothing and other random things turning up in their yard. Their cat always wanted out at night, they tried locking it in, but it went mental. Things kept turning up - sounds a bit like a Slinky Milinky story huh? <br />Then they put some form of security cameras out - and it turned out the cat was dragging all these items up the street, stolen from neighbours houses....hehe<br /><br />Pippa LOVES chicken chippies - any chippies actually, but she prefers chicken the best. You can't have any in the house without her finding out. Dad was munching on some a week or so ago, and he reckoned it was one for him, one for Pippa, she does eat healthy things too - tomatoes and such, but...lol Kaygerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01734123708037191756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6994425731906758290.post-46169976469891159452015-09-04T18:24:43.140+12:002015-09-04T18:24:43.140+12:00Really?

Once I was 18, no more pocket money, then now that I'm working full time, I have a full wage... Not sure what exactly it is though, it just goes into the bank and stays there... :P<br /><br />Haha, I hope to get there, I think I should. My 2000 for the Argo was accurate I think, I went for about the same length trips and checked it, it seemed to be about right. Today, I have it accurate... :P<br />A phone, yup, it's one of these newfangled gizmos, a big wooden box on the wall, and you turn and handle and talk into it... Isn't that right? ;P <br />Haha, funny, everyone today raves about "wireless", and how good it is. They did the exact same thing a few hundred years ago, talking about radios... :P<br />Hehe, I have the calling ability when I'm home, but I have a watch for the time and alarms, Notebook for writing notes, computer for checking for important emails once a day, and the bank tells me what's there every 6 months...

Now that I have a bank account, (since 2011), I haven't actually touched it much, I think I've only taken about $1000 out total. But the type of account is one that gives higher interest (but none when money is taken out), and has no online banking system, so basically, I can only withdraw money through an ATM... :P<br /><br />Yeah, I'm gonna have to reset mine too, it's just not accurate enough.
