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 would never go anywhere without my phone. In addition, I am always excited by the next version / model, every time.
And yes, I have doubled back home to collect my wee shiny gem...

Ok, here is the short version.

Never use your phone:
Driving
Weddings (in the quiet bits)
Concerts (you can never hear anyway)
Job interviews

You can put it on vibrate, read it later or check your answer service when you are free/safe.

Always ok to text or call, because the phones owner should have put it on silent or turned it off!

Enjoy your phone; it is already an important facet of everyday life... Just ask, "Who does not have one?"
