    Yup I also have great reservations about this nonsense. They won't be getting to my phone.

      I used to get it in Japan with earthquake warnings or Kim Jong Un doing something mental - fair enough I thought. That's cool. But what's the purpose of it on these shores? Incase we get invaded by Putin? Or maybe where I am now it could be some particularly nasty sheep worriers or cow rustlers around, or gangs scrumping for apples in the cider orchards.

      Think I'll leave it on for Sunday out of curiosity.

      But just you watch, we'll all rue the day that we turned it off when the apocalypsse comes.

        Sorry to break it to you but they'll get to your phone if they want to, regardless of what you do. But I'm pretty certain they couldn't give a shiny sh*te about what is going on on your (or any of our) phones.

          I've paid scant attention to this whole farago.
          Is the story that there's some kind of global alert coming on a'body's phones on Sunday?

          Good job I ken about it, if I hadnae I might've indiscriminately started attacking foreigners, because they'd be to blame obvs.

            Having done some research, it's to alert you if you come within 5m of some weirdo who buys their suppers at a "chippy"

              It's a good job it isn't on Saturday at 3pm:

              "And now a minute's silence for some old mannie related to the club (*) / some dignitary vaguely related to the SFA (*) / someone related to writing the VAR review rules (*) / some monarch or other [* delete as applicable]"

                My wife pointed out it could be useful for people who live in areas prone to flooding. And we had that hurricane in 1987. Maybe it would have it's (limited) benefits.

                Och, disnae really bother me. If they want to monitor us the have been able to do so for years. I've got nothing to hide, and "big brother" would bore her ti*s off if she monitored me.

                  Exactly. You give up your privacy as soon as you have a phone.

                      Oooh, dangerous argument.


                      You are however correct about the phones.

                      But nothing should EVER be done to encourage the bästards.

                          I thought that it was a Government health warning to say that the filth were coming into Town!?

                            No. They are generally the UK government's biggest fans.

                              We'll most likely be too dead to worry about it.
