wordsmith Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I KNOW I'm a Luddite - these days don't even own a mobile/ cell phone! Smartphone ? Nope - nuffink! I know I'll get caught out one day, but as I lived without such things happily and successfully for well over 50 years I'll take my chances! (I recall my first encounter with a new-fangled mobile phone. 1991. I was travelling on business with a guy from a client company, who had a mobile phone and didn't mind showing it off - they were very much a rarity in those days. He offered it to me to make a 'test-call' to my wife, and I felt quite exposed and embarrassed, and deliberately went to stand against a wall in the airport so as to be less conspicuous! Nowadays of course babes come from the womb clutching a Smartphone, tablet, laptop, whatever!)

My dad has an oldpush button flip open mobile and all he ever turns it on for is when he is out riding... a. so mum can get him if she has a problem at home...usually rushing to the hospital b. checking in with mum to tel her he's OK c. we can checkin with each other when we are going on a FarRide Otherwise, it turned OFF and tucked in a draw somewhere waiting for it's next adventure.....

Thanks, kimmie. I shooda said that I always had a very ancient non-Smart mobile with me when riding, purely for emergencies but fortunately never used for such (and that was its sole purpose in life) but since then it has gone.

vijay Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 I keep my dumbphone with me all the time. Sometimes I even turn it on. Then call my wife so she can remind me what the number is!!! Joy of being retired. You don't have to worry about customers and clients mad because they can't reach you . And since the news is a never ending repeat .... I don't see any reason I can't wait to get home to read it on google. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
