foolfillment: the blog

It’s good isn’t it? I’ve been keeping in touch with Morven (who’s still in New Zealand) with Skype using the skype out thingy. It’s really cheap, a 20 minute phone call this morning cost just about ?0.25, doing the same using phone cards would have been about ?2.

It’s almost like getting a mobile for the first time a few years ago, you can have great fun sitting in the living room with a laptop and all of a sudden the house phone rings, ‘who can that be?!’ your mum asks as she gets up. How she laughs when it stops before she gets to the phone.

Skype has it’s bad points though, I could almost hear Lordy’s wife’s despair when we were trying a conference call with our oldest brother.
