Iwant To Make My Wishes About End Of My...
Law3 mins ago
Before mobile phones were widely used I remembered loads of familyand friend's phone numbers but now I know absolutely none. I don't even know my own number. We've given up our landline and I rely solely on my phone's address book to contact people - never looking at the number I'm calling. If ever disaster struck and grief came to my phone, I wouldn't be able to contact anyone. A sobering thought. I think I'll write a few numbers down - just to be on the safe side.

I have a list of essential contacts in my wallet and in my car's glovebox, just in case. I keep a full list of phone numbers in my Google Drive account which can be accessed from any pc. Like you I would be stranded if I had to remember a phone number
I'm like you Naomi. I don't know my own number. Like Barry, I now keep a list of essential numbers after my phone died and I needed to make an urgent call. My friend offered to make the call but I didn't know the number. We did manage to make contact by a very circuitous route but it taught me a lesson not to rely on my contact list.
I came across a woman whose car had broken down a couple of years ago, a baby in the car seat. She didn't have her phone with her and couldn't remember the phone number of her breakdown company. She couldn't remember the name of the breakdown company because she changes every year, to save money. She couldn't remember any phone number.
In the end we had to google her husband's employer to get the information. She was in a real panic.
tortured analogy / follow on story just to tease Barry..... Turning off to Melbury ( Kings Hintock in Hardy'swoodlanders(, leddy and child in broken down car
SHE Knew the breakdown number - and we rang it. All I cd say was - it is a turning off the Yeovil - Maiden Newton rd ( no I did not add Ivell and Chalk Newton) - take the road south out of Yeovil
and the fella said..... I am in Delhi
I cant remember what we did: big discussion about whether leddy and child should get into car with two strangers.
Your own number should be stored in the phone under ICE - 2005 lots of people wandering around with phonesthey had forgotten how to use
AND my brudda writes his number on the back of the phone. A lorra people go "oo!"
Post no 2 - no phone, then there is little point in memorising numbers isnt there
