QUIRKY WORLD ... Never miss a lineout call with rugby pitch phone

ENGLAND: A smartphone made with grass cut from the home of England’s rugby team has been unveiled.

The “fully functioning” device has been created using recycled phone parts and pulped grass clippings from Twickenham Stadium.

Ahead of this weekend’s final RBS 6 Nations ties, the prototype aims to encourage more people to recycle their old phones and has been unveiled as part of the RFU’s social responsibility programme, Try For Change.
