Prompt If it ain't broke,, don't fix it. Write about this in your Blog entry today.

I made mention of this saying a few days ago in my blog. I was referring to the need some people exibit to cast away perfectly good household items such as dishwashers, washing machines and fridges after seeing the updated models on offer. The most wasteful in my opinion are televisions and phones. I blame the manufacturers as they produce ever bigger and better models. Well, that's their opinion of course, bigger doesn't always correlate as better. Some newer model mobile phones have barely no difference to the previous model. It might be available in a different colour or they say the camera is better, sharper. So I'll stick with my old phone until it becomes so old it won't accept any more updates. As for the television a few extra inches of width isn't going to impact my enjoyment of a movie or in fact come to think of it, or lessen my irritation at the contant advertisments attempting to take my money.
