Anyone whose mobile signal has dropped out might be frustrated to know the moon will soon have a mobile phone service.

NASA has awarded a contract to Nokia to install a 4G service on the moon. It may later be upgraded to 5G. Talk about out of this world!

So soon the moon will have a better mobile phone service than over two-thirds of Australia. Seriously.

Yea, thanks, Paul. That's who I meant

Terrible getting on a bit, ay? I was thinking McCoy and typed Corser. Freudian slip, perhaps?

There there, don't carry on so, at least you got the mode of transport correct.

You are what you eat.

I went for a pee this morning and I thought “Jeez, this hotel room toilet stinks!”

Later in the morning I went for another and the loo still smelled bad. Then it dawned on me - what I could smell in my urine was the curry from my Indian meal from the night before.

I’m not game to have a crap!
