3 Interesting facts about myself

Anonymous — Wed, 23 Jul 2014 15:42:54 GMT

Hi there!

Yesterday I introduced myself on the community on the Welcome & News section here

But I know that many of you guys usually post here, so I just wanted to drop you a note here to say Hi!

I'm looking forward to getting to know you, so if you want you can tell me (us) a little bit about yourselves in this thread.

A little bit about me: I’m passionate about digital and technology... I want to be part of the digital revolution and that’s why I'm here!

3 Interesting facts about myself:

I love music and my favourite band is Death Cab for Cutie.
I'm less than 5,1 feet tall.
When I was younger I used to lose my mobile phone all the time, now I've been with the same one for almost 2 years

What about you guys? Anything interesting about yourselves?

Hi

Thanks for sharing.

My favourite music person right now is Enemen.

My family is my main focal point and as many know I love to engage with people.

I used to own Nokia phones many moons ago but after losing faith with them I've been using iPhones and Mac's now for a number of years.

Hi @Anonymous of the exploding hearts.

The most interesting fact about me is probably the fact that there is nothing interesting about me - except perhaps I do like playing with words and other means of communication.

Knowing how eager most of the regular O2 Community Members are to show off their knowledge, wisdom and experience I wondered why so few have accepted your invitation to blow their trumpets loudly. It is not because they are shy, but perhaps they are too busy lying out in the sunshine, or working up a thirst at the barbecue. On balance I have concluded they are a bit confused, as indeed I was and still am, by your invitation which is followed by an emoticon that would seem to suggest we should all put a zipper on it! Now, talk your way out of that one, ma'am!

Good morning @Anonymous !

Everyone has interesting facts about themselves! People usually think they don’t because we tend to assume that we are normal…but we aren't :robotvery-happy:

We did have a few responses:smileytongue: ... but as you mentioned probably some of the regular O2 Community Members are on holidays lying out in the sunshine...And we have evidences of this: here I wish I was there too!

Sorry about the confusion with my emoticon, I was just being ironic...

Hi @Anonymous back from my hols now and just trying to catch up.

I am a service engineer/ tech support/ secretary in a small firm, in other words as well as maintaining and changing customers machines, I look after the computers and mobiles and look after the invoicing and letter writing too.
I have quite eclectic music tastes ranging from jazz and blues through rock, reggae and folk but not C&W.
Favourites include Neil Young, Captain Beefheart along with the late Steve Waller and Kieran O'Connor who used to play the local South London music pub circuit before their untimely but inevitable deaths, and more recently Palaoma Faith and Caro Emerald.
I've been into tech for longer than I care to remember, tinkering and modding and started messing with phones from the old Nokia 3210s flashing to unlock and fitting vibra motors and haven't looked back.

3). My dad once made a chair for the lead singer of Duran Duran; Simon Le Bon (random fact!)

And here's me

1. I used to teach karate to children (and got injured quite frequently by them).

2. Despite being a pretty decent cook, I can't make pizza. I've tried and tried and always failed.

3. I'm obsessed with candles. There are dozens of candles all around our home.

2. I'm a bit of a tech nut, I always like to have the latest technology, much to the wife's (and my bank balances) horror.
