    I don't want Shazza or the constant witter she emits around me either.

      Presumeably this can be expensed under "computer hardware" on the books?

        I wish someone had used a jammer near that slapper I rogered in the club toilets on Friday night. She was on the phone to my wife on Monday morning.

          Good point!

            It was 48 quid, I scouted a few out on the web but I got knocked back from them all because my address is in the UK. This one is coming from Hong Kong and I suppose I risk getting it confiscated at customs. Ill take that risk.

            I got this from ebay, the ads only last for about an hour before they are removed

              From what I was reading last night, many companies are now not even bothering to send them from overseas.

                An alternative to a jammer is to use South Western trains - can't get a signal for love nor money... apart from in the Quiet Zone carriages, where every f-cker was blathering to their pals, colleagues, etc., when I used that service last week.

                  Well I suppose I have to take that risk, the punter was quick to email me saying that if all is to satisfaction then he can kit me out with any amount.

                  They are not actually illegal to own and of course I will never turn the thing on.

                    I just got one of these although it will take 10 days to deliver.

                    Now i'm sure everyone has the right to make a call on public transport but when you spend 4 hours a day traveling and shazza is on the phone for 40 minutes on a Monday morning describing her 'man' pumping her in the club toilets on Friday night then it has to be done.
                    I hope it's not made in India
                    The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                    But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                      Please let us know how you get on - I am very interested.

                      Of course I am worried about illegality - I never do anything illegal.
