Isn't modern technology good? My son, who's 10, has just got his first mobile phone. That is so scary to me.
He's been going out and about a lot on his own since we got up here, and we felt he needed something to keep in touch with us, for us to keep in touch with him, and for him to know the time. So obviously a phone is the best thing. It's one of my old phones from when I was with Orange (*spit*) so he now has a PAYG phone with his own number. That's the thing that really make me go "wow". He's 10, and he has his own contact phone number. That's scary. He now has my number and his mums in his phone, and he's itching to get his mates numbers in there. He can text and call etc. I'll say it again... he's 10.
What was I doing when I was 10? Nothing anywhere near owning my old mobile phone.
Soundtrack of the day: "Stone Roses" - the 20th anniversary edition (yes I succumbed).

We used to get dropped at the beach, then call the home number from a payphone let it ring 3 times, hang up then repeat twice.
This told mum we were ready for collection :P
