I felt sorry for the guy who had put a lot of effort into preparing a happy birthday MMS for her complete with attached birthday cake clip-art.

Last night as a birthday present for me, I got this message from a random number: (reproduced here exactly as it was received)

Sos 4 delay, yes we’d luv 2 come 4 sun lunch. Wot time? Hopn ur al wel,hav bin recoverin from an arse op!Very painful!Wil fil u in wen i c u.X

So I exercised enormous restraint and ignoring the bait replied “Think you’ve got the wrong number :)” to which I recevied:

Is that not u debbie?Txt was from nicola x

Nope, sorry. Hope the arse gets better though.
