Hello, Jazzgirl!
I have discovered there are apps available to prevent "pocket-dialling" etc from the Google Play Store.
One that I looked at had "Call Confirm" on it.
Meaning, if you call someone, you are asked to "confirm" the call before it rings the intended recipient.
The apps are free, but I won't get one just now, in the hope that it does not happen again!

Hi, Rusty!
Goodness, that was indeed a mystery about your phone!
Fortunately , no harm seems to have been done...and you had a nice chat with your daughter- in-law as a result of the "mishap"!
It is worrying, though, how it could possibly have occurred when your phone was lying untouched on your desk.....?
That was nice of Jazzgirl to try to help you.
Hopefully as you have all sorts of checks and preventions set in place, it won't happen again...…
It is good to have "Eggheads" back again now that the tennis has finished.
I missed the daily half hour taxing of my brain power!!
We have a pleasant evening here, and it is a little bit fresher now , thank fully.
I am just about to organise dinner.
I think we might have omelettes!

Hello rusty
That app. sounds useful.
My landline phone (BT Decor) has given up the ghost after 12 years.
I now have a cordless phone with call blocker which can be used even at the end of the garden. But all the technology on it is ridiculous, half of which I will never use.
I am switching off the wifi for this evening to relax in the garden, so I wish you and all a goodnight

Hope not!

Hello, Jazzgirl!
My landline phone is a BT Decor, too!
Had it for years.
My preference is a simple phone without too much in the way of technology.
The BT Decor is fine, in that respect.

Hello, Elle!
Found another nice clip of singing, "Wild Atlantic Way"!
And guess what?
The singer is called "Elle"!

Hi, Rusty!
Thank you for the clip!
Yes, that was another lovely rendering of the "Wild Atlantic Way" - by my "namesake"!
I am enjoying my leisurely strolling down the WWA!
It isn't that long since your son and daughter -in -law came to London previously.......are they coming to see a show?
Will Miss O'Hara come with them?
There are always some great things going on in London - lots to do and see.
River boat trips should be especially nice in this lovely weather.
I am sure they will have a great time.

Good morning, Elle!
Fine start to the day here.
Hope it does not get too warm.
Your namesake is a fine singer!
I have "saved" quite a few of the videos of the Wild Atlantic Way, in YouTube.
My son and family are in London for a week but I am not "in" on their plans.
I'll maybe hear more on Saturday.
Yes, young Miss O'Hara is going, too.
The Tour is in the Alps today.
You can find it (and the scenery and wolves) on ITV4.
I can't see Greg van Avarmaet keeping the yellow jersey in the mountains...we shall see!
I have a "scrape and polish" later at my dentist.
Not fond of that, at all!

A Very Good morning to you, Rusty!
A beautiful day here.
I had a pleasant walk early on with the dog....it was only 19C when I first went out.
But it is heating up rapidly now, on my return home....24C already....
I have a cold drink to hand....and my apple and cheese......and both fans blowing.......
I shall have a go at the crossword........
Let us hope my brain engages today!
I may try and catch some mountain views later.......
Good luck with your "scrape and polish" at the dentist!

Hello, Elle!
Grand day here, too!
A good puzzle today, I think.
I am just off out to my dentist.
The Tour should be on by the time I return!
