Easy. Go into the wrong kind of Irish pub and shout "God bless England, King Billy and St. George!". Your certificate will be summarily revoked for you.  :)

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

£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.

I probably make less calls than you do.

The phone bit is a fairly minor function between the camera, navigation, research, entertainment, organisational, social, banking, transaction and identity functions.

Research function is great for avoiding lemons and checking bounce prices in the middle of a field at a hamfest  :-DD

IIRC, that "digit" is just a long neon bulb for a "1". I don't believe there is an actual digit, is there?

I have an almost unreasonable hatred of paying to park a car, let alone a congestion charge.

A few years back, say 15-20, I used to be able to claim, with some justification, that you could name anywhere in Central London and I could tell you where to park legally for free for at least an hour within a 5-10 minute walk, often closer. Those days are a gone with (1) increasing parking restrictions everywhere and (2) I haven't kept my knowledge up to date.

Ditto. I'm saving them for a rainy day...
