Thanks, so I'm crossing an iPhone 6 off my list of 2nd hand phones then, I would like a high-end model which will have longer support but not the associated costs, so I'm thinking of a second hand model, unlocked of course.

Be careful where you buy them. Some of them are mutants stuffed with crap parts. Apple sell refurbs but you’re looking at £529+. Giffgaff sell refurb iPhone 11 for a reasonable price with warranty https://www.giffgaff.com/mobile-phones/apple/apple-iphone-11/refurbished

It's going to get released into the atmosphere and do what? Build up to become a huge big gas cloud that we are going to be breathing in and then one day a lightening strike ignites it and the entire planet erupts into a huge fireball and incinerates everything and everyone or worse, the planet blows apart and ceases to be a planet any more. :-// :-// :-//

You must be pulling our plonkers. Natural gas that has happily spent millions of years underground is suddenly going to start floating up into the air if we don't use it?

Undersea methane clathrate/hydrate? (Note the question mark)
Methane in permafrost.

And methane rising from landfill sites, sewage works, cows and other sources, and yes it was a bit of tongue in cheek but it does make you think, and don't forget that now we have drilled into the earths crust and disturbed the balance, so there is always the possibility of leaks and blow outs, even from capped wells, at some time in the future I'm sure that there will be a major event, but when is the question.

I actually have a Bacon number! It's 3 - I was in something with Robbie Coltrane (whose Bacon number is 2). Sadly I don't have an Erdös number so I can't have an Erdös-Bacon number, or the best to have, an Erdös-Bacon-Sabbath number and sadly nobody does Bacon-Sabbath numbers, which I probably have as I used to play with (and share a flat with) Dougie Scarratt from Saxon who has beyond a doubt played with someone with a Sabbath number.
Also, a Bacon Sabbath sounds like something I'd like to be invited to. Mmmm, bacon...

£379 upwards?! I'm not going to spend that much on cellphones/calls in the rest of my life! I'd be surprised if I spend £20/year.
