I just bought a new smartphone. Google Pixel 7a. Now I'm not someone that just carelessly just buys new things without a care for the amount of labor and environmental impact that goes into producing things like these becauz I've had my current phone for at least 5 years, and if the volume and power buttons weren't all worn and stuck, I would still be using it, but things break. I always did intend to use my phones until they broke, so it was time for a new one. I actually hate buying new phones because it's hard to find one with the things I want. But at least I didn't buy a brand new phone, I bought a refurbished one off Backmarket, so at least then I'm not contributing too much to the demand of new products and the issue of e-waste and the mining of more materials, so I can feel better about that. An infrequent purchase bought in a more sustainable way. I encourage you all to do the same when buying new consumer goods.

Think about your impact!

I just got a new phone myself, well refurbished because I broke my own the other week, and claimed on the insurance from my O2 contract.

Except the new phone has an annoying problem, it won't let me type texts or emails for some reason? I hate touch screen phones anyway due to having fat fingers, but this compounds the problem.

Well as of just now, after several discussions with O2's highly annoying Foreign call centre, the problem is "magically" resolved!

Aren't you a bit old for cuddly toys though?

Coffee

Taxi fare to The Light this morning, then a Cappucino coffee there, and later, a Pizza and another Cappucino at lunch time (£13.60 for a Pizza and a coffee? Pardon? The irony is, it'd be significantly cheaper to pop across to Gregg's for a sandwich, but it always takes AGES to get served in there at lunch time!), and then another Taxi back to the Flat after 43 minutes on the Karaoke in the Boom Battle Bar.

2 Clearpay payments for costumes from Halloweencostumes.co.uk this week, and I've got another one to do by the end of next week (so I need to budget for that, no mad spending sprees)

Lottery ticket (£130M on Euromillions tonight) and a Scratch card (On which I won a fiver)
