Our first topic is about something many of us would rather live without, but double back home to get if we leave them behind. Mobile phones.

We'd like to know your thoughts on mobiles phones and their usage. Things like when you should or shouldn't use them, what time is too late to call someone and when is it appropriate or inappropriate to text or call.

I have had a mobile phone for about 5 years and have probably only made half a dozen calls, While I can understand the importance of mobile phones in business, such as a tradesman or real estate agent and many other services, what I can't get my head around is the number of calls made, mainly by kids, for purely inconsequential reasons (to me anyway!) When I go out, I automatically put my phone on my pocket, but hardly ever have a reason to use it. It is mainly for emergency use. What people must pay for making all these calls must be astronomical...........Perhaps that is one of the reasons we have so many complaints about the cost of living
