No mobile phones

[discodown]

Wouldn't life be simpler if we got rid of mobile phones?

 

I resisted getting one at first when they started to get really popular but to no avail. I now obviously have one and really wish I didn't.

 

Maybe my cynicism of the world is getting the better of me but I would love to be able to switch it off and lead life at my own pace.

 

I suppose my gripe is not with mobiles exactly more that life seems to be passing me by and all the things that I want to get done I can't (of course less time on SF might help!). But still, mobies, should we live without them?

i have one...eventually

i only really use it as a glorified watch tho

only have 3 numbers on it and ones our home phone lol

i never give anybody the number (i dont know the number) takes me about an hour to write a text, and takes me ages to find the bit to find out how much ive got on the account

 

my account is...........£5 odd

and ive had the phone someat like 8 months with just one £10 on it

 

 

i HATE phones

[wwcrazy]

as a parent to two teenagers I think it's a godsend:)

 

calls on it rarely last more than 20 seconds and a tenner top up lasts a couple of months.

My bold

 

Well, why don't you just switch it off, then?

 

Only about 3 people have my mobile number and it's switched off most of the time, anyway.

 

It's one of those things - like the tumble dryer - that I seldom use but wouldn't be without.
