I hate the mobile Phone do you ?

This evening when spending time on forward planning of the herb project and refreshing the garden long ago neglected, I was so contented . no wind, no rain , and sat with my tibetan spaniel in the green field on a chair wich just about held my bottle of old peculiar beer in its arm rest with 2 more bottles available if anyone turned up when they saw how happy i felt in my little paradice then the dreaded noise fom this thing in my inside pocket telling me they have somthing they want from me

So looking around at this area of tranquility i decided to switch off the blasted machine

and im not even sorry if it was you

I have an Aye Fone (iphone) and I hate the damn thing, it is a horrible squinty eyed contraption, or should I say it makes me squinty eyed trying to see whats on the screen

And I don't like laptop computers either

Mute button..........simple.

If you don't like your phones, get rid of them..

Always leaving mine all over the place.

When I worked in the UK I had two cellphones and a pager on my belt, don't miss any of them or the moaning buggers on the other end of the call!

"I had two cellphones and a pager on my belt"

That is a good way to get your nuts fried from microwave radiation ...

Approaching 70 I do not have a mobile,never had or used one.We have lost our freedom to be alone with our thoughts.I can see and appreciate the benefits of a mobile but I think I will stay phoneless.

A mobile phone was for the use of making calls on the move,then texting was added cheaper than making a callNow mobiles are media centres with everything from video cameras/tv/sat nav etc.In Wigan can even be used to pay for parkingThe latest app is for using the phone to pay bills.Most of the time I only carry my phone for emergencies

No, or I wouldn't have one.

People are amazed when they ask for my mobile number and I tell them I don't have one..They look at me with a "HOW DO YOU MANAGE" look... Worst invention of the 20th century.

Love mine..essential for my business..I can go anywhere and my calls are diverted to my mobile..years ago I used to stay at home in case I missed a call.

My mobile has been on the blink for months, and I have been trying to hold out until my birthday next month, when I hope to get a smartphone which I really need for work. Its been great not hearing it ring/beep or vibrate - apart from when it decides to kick in that is. I may just put the smartphone on hold, the peace is wonderful.

Its the phone makers that have told us we NEED them, we don't really, they're an annoyance at best, they're down right dangerous at times, they fry your brains and cause stress and as others have found out, life with the phone turned off is more productive if your working, and more peaceful when your relaxing,

I have the most simple, pay as you go phone... Most of the time it's switched off... I have it in my handbag, just in case I have a problem when I'm driving ( flat tire.. engine light coming on, etc )... I have been known to switch off the house phone too, my daughter can't understand it, she being one of the the millions that can't go anywhere without the phone being glued to their hands... God forbid they miss even the most mundane of messages I prefer the peace and quiet anytime...

I have one and had it for 3 yrss bt still dont know how to wrk it and cannot be botheredIt was bought for me to take when I go out for a lonely walk==just in case ha

Wonderful things if used correctly.

Lifesavers, dealbreakers.

Marriage wreckers... well sometimes.

Ooo....tell us more, you are full of little secrets, you deviant!

I was referring to folk snooping on their other halves texts - and not liking what they find.

Eavesdroppers rarely like what they hear.

mines always switched off,only have it for emergences.

I truly hate the cell-phone I can't keep the battery charged.

I have the Yingtong song as a ring tone, dont half get some funny looks,

Why do some people have to SHOUT when using cell plones?

So we all can see how important they are, and why does the signal affect your brain so much you are forced to pace all the time you are on it.

I've noticed that too Mac, If you ever watch anyone from roadworks gangs on the phone, they pace up and down and kick stones,

yep i hate it to i refused point blank to have one in my cab when i was driving hgv trucks reason being it was a hard enough job without being pressurised into doing more work i salute drivers like trucker dave he and his fellow truck drivers have my up most admaration for keeping this country on its feet

I am thinking of becoming a trucker

trucker

Did you spell that correctly?
