[Margaret Pilkington]

Her phone has an emergency call button on it and it dials a succession of family members until someone picks up the call...she also has a lifeline device.
She knows not to ring my mobile number as it isn't switched on. Although when we had to vacate the house to have some repairs done I did have a mobile phone on all the time......but in Foulridge where we were holed up the signal was non existent....so it is a good job she didn't rely on it.
I do not like mobile phones....and mine is purely for my convenience. I use it very infrequently. I don't feel the need to be permanently connected to the media world.
My phone doesn't take pictures, it doesn't connect to the internet...it is just a phone.
Neil, it is a generational thing.
