I don't miss it and have never replaced it. Lost my pager years back, I hope Dick isn't still chasing me for it! I go out with bins, a notebook, a pen (admittedly I should use a pencil but I don't), a few field guides and umpteen bits of entomological paraphenalia. Plus chocolate, hula hoops and Red Bull. Sometimes I go out with others, but usually I prefer to head out solo. No compromises that way, although I doubtless overlook/fail to ID many things others could help me with. Sometimes this backfires (like when I drive straight past a mega and only hear about it later that evening) but generally it suits me well. Weirdo that I am :) Gibsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14699055561230102061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8802206289996500659.post-14147781021180311972014-06-30T18:55:22.053+01:002014-06-30T18:55:22.053+01:00When has all these fancy bells n' whistles eve...When has all these fancy bells n' whistles ever assist anyone actually finding anything at all!!

(Saw a film called Her yesterday- disturbing- bloke falls in love with his lap top and then the lap top dumps him and he's in bits) A ten pound phone from Asda is my solution for anywhere outside the office- just about makes calls and texts- for emergencies.
