She said to me this morning “have you got any new apps” so I’m thinking she means apps for my phone turns out she meant applications. She keeps using the term apps as well. Apps for your phone is still just a shortened version of applications. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stayed down at the old Telford college development for years. Lost track of the number of times that street has had lights on it. thankfully back up the Southside again. Although the council have been acting the goat up the length of the southside for the past few months with all the resurfacing and redesigning of junctions on the go.
