I remember spending hours on the phone attached to the wall in our kitchen. I even remember when we had a rotary phone.Even Steven wrote: ↑Sep 6th, 2021, 10:48 pm Age? Old enough to remember having a landline.

And on a party-line. No, not a "party" line, an actual phone line you had to ask to be connected to a certain number and the operator could listen to the conversation....

I don't give a damn whether people/posters like me or dislike me, I'm not on earth to win any popularity contests.

You must have been one of those kids that got off the school bus and got on the phone with the girl you sat beside on the bus. tied up the party line. I was trying to get in touch with my bank manager and you were "Y'know Jeff said like I was nice and like he likes me but i like jimmie more, his dad has a nice car and when jimmie is 16 he is gonna show me the upholstery on the back seat" I remember you very well.WeatherWoman wrote: ↑Sep 7th, 2021, 6:07 pmI remember spending hours on the phone attached to the wall in our kitchen.

lol I remember the old phone on the wall with a crank handle to get the operator to connect you to someone else.
Truths can be backed up by facts - do you have any?

I remember two cans and a string.
Living in England as a kid, no one had phones, there was a three to five year wait for the wires & you had to know someone,

You're wide awake tonight suds.
