My GF's little boy has lost his i-pod - as this was a very expensive Christmas Present she is turning the house upside down - he remembers bringing it in and putting on table in lounge - he is 9 - so will be interested to know when she finds it where it was ;D She has looked in the cooker, the fridge, you know the usual places when things go missing

I have a sock eating machine but it tends to spit them out again in another few washes ;D and I am also a counter but I only go up to 9 and then the whole thing has to make 10 or if its a bigger thing then it has to end on an odd number to make say 20-30-40- etc I thought I ws the only one who did it and I have never told anyone about this before, glad I'm wont be alone in the hospital ward I just hope they dont have a checked floor

As long as you do not open any drawers as they might just be filled with odd socks ;D Good to know so many more on here are mental I do not count but any important meeting has to be on any day but a six day. 21 january 2011 that is 2+1+1+2+0+1+1 = 8 today is a good day ;D

Gawd, we'll be able to have our own ward in the mental hospital ;D ;D I didn't tell anyone about my counting addiction for years - but now I'm old enough not to care ;D ;D My older son has one of my traits too, when he hangs out the family's washing, he pegs it along the line from smallest garment up to the largest.His wife won't let him do it often as it takes him sooo long ;D ;D I do that too - but sort the clothes first, so I'm quicker than him

I admit to lining my breakfast things up on the counter - and I have to do everything in the right order, or it throws me.

Getting ready to alert the men in white coats?

I think he's made the appointment already. And he's fed up with wearing odd socks! ;D

Maybe you should attach them to wrist-chains, Jas! ;D ;D

Another good idea. Why can't it just be Rubik's cubes and things that children still want?

Biggest twin was saying he doesn't want the 5G ipod to ever come out as they have the up to date one at the moment - wonder how long it will be before it comes out and what it will do? Don't suppose it will help them remember what homework needs printing off and taking into school nor the right day for it!

You never know Jas it may just get the boys up for school like Harvey the dog on the TV add I could do with a Harvey then I could spend all my time in the garden and he could help OH feeding the sheep ;D

I haven't come across Harvey Carolann but I've just googled him. What a clever dog. Much more useful than an ipod!

You could attach the iPods to strings, like mittens ;D

Had to add an extra post so I have an even number I NEVER listen to music,of any sort, anytime, so I wouldn't know what to do with an iPod if I had one

I often think about fostering one of the not needed MP4 players but I actually like my peace and quiet so don't know why I'd want to be wondering around listening to music. Anyway, I'm very happy talking to myself ;D

I have a very very simple MP3 player, which I take with me when I walk Henry on a bad day - listening to music helps take my mind off the rain, wind or mud. (Shudder) I am definitely a dinosaur - my granddaugher thought she'd send a photo through to my mobile. She'll be lucky - all it does is make and receive calls! ;D (Nor do I know how to text!)

My Dad can pick up a text but not reply!

So can I - I tried to reply a couple of times, but all the letters came out in a long string with no spaces 'cos I don't know how to make the gaps! ;D ;D

I text at least a dozen times a day, and can use my phone camera I don't like music and I don't like things in my ears ( except earrings ;D) so I'm not interested in those sorts of gadgets.Even my Dad could send and receive texts....when he was 88!!

I told you I was a dinosaur! i have earphones, because those little round things wouldn't stay in my ears - and they hurt, too! Otherwise, I only listen to music in the car.
