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.

YES I AGREE, I HAVE BEENKNOWN TO DOUBLE BACK, BUT THEN I AM 71 AND FEEL SAFER IF I HAVE IT WITH ME WHEN DRIVING THE CAR,,, I ALWAYS TURN IT OFF WHEN HAVING COFFEE,LUNCH ETC., WITH MY FRIENDS AND WHEN GETTING TO THE SUPERMARKET CHECKOUT.. THERE IS NO REASON TO LEAVE IT ON WHEN SOCIALISING UNLESS THERE IS AN ILLNESS OR SOME SUCH PROBLEM IN THE FAMILY, THEN YOU CAN ALWAYS TURN THE SOUND OFF, AND GO OUTSIDE TO ANSWER IT. A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE EXTREMELY RUDE WHEN TAKING CALLS IN PUBLIC PLACES - WE DO NOT WANT TO KNOW EVERYONES LIFE STORY.
