    I had that the other day. I'm on Vodafone too.

    I had that problem once before though, and fixed it by turning my phone off and on again (leaving it for a while in between), so try that. I did it and got about a month's worth at once though.

    The first rule of mobile phone usage - if in doubt give the sim card a wee rub with your fingers.

    Give Vodafone a call, if they're anything like o2 then they can check if there's any messages waiting to be delivered then they can push them through.

    It's just a network thing that happens from time to time.

    You do a lot of travelling about and you live in the hills don't you? If you go out of signal and someboyd tries to text you then the message stays pending until you're back in service, it's just there's a glitch with the network that means they're all bunged up like a traffic jam and don't come through straight away.

    I strongly doubt it's a handset fault though, like I say speak to Vodafone and see what they advise. If there's nothing wrong with the network then they'll send out a new sim.

    As if traffic jams are the first thing you think of when the words "bunged up" are mentioned. :p
