Couldn't find an option that I agreed with.  confused:

Mine is mainly for emergency only, normally to ring to say that I'm stuck on a train and won't be home at the usual time so don't drop the children off until later.



You're not one of those that tells the whole carriage too I hope? whistle:

Eh??

Can you switch it off? The house phone has no switch.

If in doubt, do what they do in that Famous Grouse advert, and toss it in the Loch, or in your case, the cess pit.
It was after that when all the letters came off the little window on the front.

No  Angry9: either I keep the converstion to a minimum or send a text.

Actually I've noticed that there are less mobile conversations on the train now. Maybe more people text instead.

Probably one of the few occassions I would deem texting useful.
Problem with texting......apart from all the fartin about taking 20 minutes to write one short sentence, and doing irrepairable damage to your eyesight.... is that you never know if the recipient has received the message.

Yes, all the pictures I have seen of mobile phones have them!

Above the dialling keys there is a little square window, below where it says Nokia.

When I first got the phone, the window had Vodafone written on it with some vertical stripes on either side.

The stripes wore off first, then the letters.

It never really bothered me as nobody rings and the kids are happy because I do what they ask and always take my mobile with me 'just in case'. ::)

Well I'm not going to. It's probably the number for the local mental institution.
