  • Listing Certain Names In Your Phone Can Be Very Dangerous

    A lady has now changed her habit of how she lists her names on her mobile phone after her handbag was stolen. Her handbag, which contained her mobile phone, credit card, purse, etc., was stolen.

    20 minutes later when she called her husband, from a phone she had borrowed off of a stranger telling him what had happened, he was astonished & told her . . ‘Oh god.. I received your text asking about our Pin number and I’ve replied a little while ago.

    When they rushed down to the bank, the bank staff told them all the money was already withdrawn. The thief had actually used the stolen mobile phone to text “hubby” in the contact list & got hold of the pin number. Within 20 minutes he had withdrawn all the money from their bank account.

    IMPORTANT lesson:

    a. Do not disclose the relationship between you & the people in your contact list. Always avoid using names like Home, Missus, Hubby, Sweetheart, Dad, Mum, etc.

    b. And very importantly, when sensitive info is being asked through texts, do not respond BUT immediately CONFIRM by calling back.

    c. Also, when you receive a text unexpectedly from friends or family asking you to meet them somewhere, be sure to call back to confirm that the message came from them. If you don’t reach them, be very careful about going places to meet ‘family and friends’ who text you.

    PLEASE PASS THIS ON. .

    Even if this doesn’t pertain to you …. Pass it on to your family and friends. It may be useful.

  • Brides List Of Demands Are Crazy- Bridezilla

    One woman took to Facebook to ask advice in an anonymous forum, let us know in the comments if she is right to be a tad annoyed.

    The woman wrote:

    I’ve been asked to be a bridesmaid next year but the bride has some demands, I just want to know if I am being a dick here!

    1) I need long blonde hair. I currently have short red hair I’ve told her I won’t be bleaching however I’ll compromise and wear a wig

    2) I need to be size 10. I’m currently an 18 after losing 8 stone this year i’ve told her I will work as hard as I can but I feel that is slightly unrealistic, she won’t budge and will only order my dress in a 10 and I am to pay  the full cost of it.

    3) I need to take all my piercings out, including my tongue bar! I’ve told her I will comprise with retainers but my chest piercing can’t come out as I’ll never ever get it back in.

    4) (my personal favourite) I need to cover my tattoos. All 15 of them. We are having mid-thigh dresses, I have tattoos on my legs, arms, back, hands, chest and neck. Told her this will not be covered under any circumstances.

    5) my husband isn’t coming to the wedding or reception, she doesn’t want us “being cuter than her and her husband” in fairness, he won’t go anyway because he hates her 😂 and we have got 2 kids so he will be home with them

    If I don’t adhere to all these rules, I’m out of the bridal party. Am I a wrong for my compromises and basically telling her I don’t want to be involved? It’s a bit high maintenance for my liking!

    Would you chance to make the bride happy after all it is her special day or tell her where to go?

  • Do Children Still Believe In Santa?

    Do kids still believe in Santa?

    With Just over a month to go until the big day, a new company is offering to make a Realistic Santa CCTV footage video of Santa in your home. Using green screen technology Santa CCTV uses your own home photos to produce the video.
    Do your kids still believe in Santa? We do!

    According to a poll done by www.santacctv.co.uk Eighty-one percent of parents with kids ages 10 or under say at least one of their children thinks Santa Claus is real. Another 14 percent say their kids have outgrown the belief, while 9 percent say their kids never believed in Santa in the first place. One-in-three youngsters in the UK join in the ritual to save their mum and dad from “getting sad” on Christmas day.
    Unsurprisingly, the vast majority of adult respondents believe it’s OK for kids to believe in Santa, although they pick age 12 as the average age at which children should learn the truth.
    Just over one-fifth of parents with kids between the ages of 11 and 17 say their kids still believe in Santa Claus.
    Three-quarters of the adults surveyed say they believed in Santa as kids, up until the age of 9.

    Refreshingly, there’s little sign of a partisan gap. Older people, though, are a little more likely to have believed — 80 percent of those ages 45 and older say that they did, compared to just 66 percent of those under 30.
    One-fifth of people have spoiled Santa for someone!

    Seventeen percent of respondents say that they’ve told someone who believed in Santa Claus that he didn’t exist.
    Julie Hill from http://www.santacctv.co.uk said ‘Christmas is a magical time, and keeping the spirit of Santa Claus alive is important. Our videos are a little bit of Christmas Magic!’ (santa cctv demo:https://youtu.be/e3sf3pHDc1I)

  • Boys- The Gross Truth, What You Need To Know

    Now as a mother of two boys, one who is 8 and the other just starting puberty at the age of 11, I wish someone had giving me a heads up a mini pre-warning of the gross and weird things boys do.

    Now I love my boys to death and wouldn’t change (much) about them.

    Ok so these are the things that no one ever tells you about little boys.

    • Farts.. there hilarious to boys and if you have more than one boy they will have farting competition and often will thoroughly enjoy farting on each other.

    • Baby boys get erections…I was shocked when I first saw it and assumed they didn’t erm appear until puberty.

    • Boys like to pull their willy and will openly do this whilst mid-conversation or when in public

    • Boys are proud of their poos and will often call on you to view it.

    • Bogeys are often wiped on siblings, furniture or even eaten.

    • Boys talk…by the time your child is in double figures they will be asking multiple questions about hair on bits, and how does milk get in boobs, they will have no shame in discussing all the things they have learnt off of their friends at school.

    • The words poo and bum are the funniest words ever.

    • Their aim is off! Wee goes on the seat, on the floor, sometimes even on the walls.

    • My boys walk better in heels than me

    • Boys are rarely clean, mud and trees are their greatest play thing

    • Boys are gross they will set each other dares, like sticking 30 marshmallows in their mouth and then end up spitting it out

    • Boys are just as sensitive as girls and that’s absolutely fine.

    • Boys love their mum and will always need you

    Can you think of any more gross truths? If so please add yours in the comments section.
