I did it the other way round Craig.
refused to have a smartphone until last year. Just made do with a simple Nokia which I rarely left the house with.
it was so nice to be uncontactable but for changing personal reasons, I had to have one.

Interesting! How are you finding the transition?
To be honest, at first I carried the phone at work so I could be contactable but then I started using it to phone customers and suppliers to save waiting for an office phone to be free and then started using it for web browsing in my breaks and now I use it to update build threads on here and take it everywhere.

I never saw this comment! sorry! I know what you mean. It scares me how they've made themsleves irreplaceable. I had to buy a Nokia to make calls and texts, a Satnav, a torch, an MP3 player, a paper notebook.. and a backpack to carry it all round in, haha. Music Magpie paid me £325 though.. which was nice. I think that carrying around a backpack with all that in is a small price to pay for total presense. It's funny, I was at the Vets waiting the other day, and I found myself looking around in the room.. and even interacted with the staff there. Previously at the first moment of boredom or anxiety my eyes would be straight on the screen where they would remain until my wait was over. I don't miss it at all. At the moment I can say, it's probably the best thing I've done!
Hope you're keeping good, mate. And that wherever you work on your Mini has good heating. Brrrr
