I think it's time we have a phone number for people to call if they
get lost trying to find the fizzPOP venue. This happened at tonights
session and we only found out about it via twitter two hours later.
Does anyone have a pay-as-you-go sim card and possibly even an old
phone (plus charger) that they don't need and would like to donate?
It'd only be used for people to contact us on event days and would
free us from having to give out our own phone numbers.

The FizzPhone! I like it. Also it gives me an idea.
Depending what type of phone it is, we should crack it open and wire
endless red led's round it so that it glows red when it rings, just
like the bat phone ;-)

If you know anyone with a spare one going around we'd be glad to have it!
As an aside, if anyone does have a phone would they be able to get it
to me before the next hack session? I work just around the corner from
the venue so will more than likely be there early so can answer any
calls then. From then on we can just leave the phone there.
