Just clowning around on my phone this morning and thought I'd be a pain to the wifes sisters. Knew what time both would be on the train to work so I found a really long article on phenomenology (the most stupid thing I could think of at the time) so copied it on the iPhones browser and pasted it into a text message. I figured as both have blackberries they'd receive around 30 texts each and be slightly unpopular with those around them on the packed train.

Turns out I may have slightly underestimated the size of the article as each received 283 texts!!

Don't have unlimited texts so an additional 566 texts may hurt when the bill comes in...

You clearly have far too much time on your hands and/or fancy your wife's sisters.

that has to be one of the most unlikely, non-cost effective and weirdly sinister practical jokes i've ever heard of. 😕

I get round that by just not going to them in the first place.

Learn from this, and get a package that has unlimited texts. Then do it again. And again. And again.

Yes. Yes, I think that does indeed cover it. But I'm still hooting with laughter. 😀

I have known them for 14 years, it is possible to have a laugh at my sisters in laws expense as I would do any of my mates. There are no sexual undertones to it.... 😕

You keep telling yourself that - especially the next time their faces flit into your conciousness just at 'that' special private moment...

That's brilliant, from a '3rd party' point of view!

At least you were good enough to share with us so we can laugh for free!! 😆

Thanks, that's given me a right good chuckle. Both the idea of it and the 'fail' element of the execution 🙂

d a really long article on phenomenology (the most stupid thing I could think of at the time)

My MSc dissertation is a phenomenological study 🙁

But then my supervisor has said I am the first person he has ever told that their dissertation would make a good book. 🙂

I bet they won't think its funny when they have to delete each message separately as they don't want to 'delete all' and lose the important ones!

You could try calling your SP and saying you've noticed all these texts on your bill...I found 45 texts sent within 5 minutes on my phone bill (which I genuinely didn't send) so I phoned up and they agreed it looks like a glitch and refunded the £4.50 without quibble 🙂
