wiseheart: For a very long time I thought that mobiles were spawned by Sauron. Then Mum had to go to the hospital, and I ran to buy one, because that was her link to the rest of the world for 5 weeks, and I was so grateful for the frigging thing it isn't even funny.
Now, three years later, we both still have a basic Nokia, all that which can do are actual phone calls - okay, they can send text messages and take photographs, too, but we hardly ever use them for that - and we only switch them on when we're out of the house, just in case.
People tend to whine about my mobile being off when I'm at home, and I then answer innocently: Well, you can always try the landlnie... *g*
