Well at least my Mum is being sympathetic...

I wouldn’t expect anything else in a big city. You have got away with it being in Otley, but why must it leave your pocket? Do phones have to be right beside everyone all the time? It’s the same in pubs and McD’s. Phones on tables everywhere.
They are asking to be stolen.

I am so old that I do not understand it at all. I suppose because I do not feel it is “my life”, as younger people do, I always have mine in a pocket or bag, which is why I miss calls (which are not important in the first place in the grand scheme of life).
I wish the bloody things had never been invented. My Crime Desk job consisted of dozens of calls a day about stolen phones and made my life a misery so I see it from a different point of view. At least I did get CCTV checked in those sort of locations and made a lot of work for myself. I shouldn’t think city police would bother.
Oh well. she won't be bothered by any calls from me in the near future. Because they are not important.

Try and stay calm. I expect you will rant and rave at my email but it’s how I feel. Yours is not the only life that is shit.
Yes I know.
That's why I vented on here and didn't try to hurt you, mother.

Heh. The last line is always the killer.
