davidd’s A DOLL A DAY 2021

Those former Soviet Bloc countries are really catching up to the West, aren't they?     Just kidding! Thank you for the interesting and extensive mobile phone info and the other comments. I shall attempt to respond at more length sooner rather than later, but at the moment... you know how it is!

Ha, I wish! Some other countries around us, yes, but us - it actually feels like we're pacing backwards now (and this is where I stop before things get political. I have enough issues around me without considering the country's political situation and approach).
Fun fact: I ordered my current phone from Germany but the model is a Chinese one (Xiaomi). I wasn't looking at fancy features, the main musts were the dual SIM capability, the relatively small size (and this, too, is bigger than my previous one was, and took over a year to get used to handling!), the big storage space (64Gb - because of the 2 SIMs there is no place for a memory card, and I need my music with me in actual mp3 format, I'm refusing to have wifi/mobile data on all the time, and Spotify doesn't even have a lot of things I like ) and the powerful battery. Oh, and it had to be black. All blacky black, not black combined with another colour, not black with a silver rim, not antracite, not grey, not... any of these options that seemed to be very common at that time (I have no clue if this is still the case). The model was already discontinued here by the time I realised I really need a new phone and this could work, hence the international order. Luckily a friend from Germany came over just around those times, so I haven't actually had to pay international shipping.

Glad to see Bearded Guy finally got his new body, and that you didn't have to let the old clothing go as a result. One of the reasons why I'm not planning to rebody my bluehead Pullip crew on Obitsus is because most of them would then no longer be able to fit into their stock outfit. I wish there were other options to rebody Pullips that wouldn't come with this downside.
