e-spotting

[groundhugger]

on a recent visit to the local pub for some refreshment , i wandered into the smoking garden to be met with a group of chaps pointing their phones into the air getting quite excited , apparently they are the 'e-spotters' , checking out the overflights 'dot spotting' ,
you now don't even have get out of bed to do it or open the bedroom curtains , all the info is literally at your finger tips itunes.apple.com/gb/app/plane-finder-ar/id390039844?mt=8
time to put the little notebook away in a drawer for good !
not being a techie type I find all this quite bewildering and moving a bit to fast to keep up with . I might have get a new phone [when they become cheaper at carphone w/house] ;D ;D

Groundhugger...I trust that by "w/house" you mean warehouse! :-)

Apparently there was once a dyslexic pimp who bought himself a warehouse...

Beware of using these features on a mobile phone, they cause injuries! Yesterday while I was out I saw a few vapour trails going over whilst walking to the pub. I turned on my plane finder like any enthusiast would do in the circumstances and was looking at my phone whilst watching the trails. What happened next? Walked straight into a litter bin and went complete womens bits up, litter bin fell over, rubbish everywhere and had a bus stop full of pensioners laughing. So I now have a sprained ankle, cracked Galaxy S2, grazed elbow and one hell of a dinted pride!

Please be careful out there, dot spotting can be dangerous.

Is there a case for special guide dogs for dot-spotters?
