I'm showing my age now I know. All these youngsters that get anxiety over phonecalls.

And there's me reminiscing about the days when the sound of a voice was music to your ears. Now it's all message alerts tones and they really aren't the same.

I think you can reverse charge on a mobile, but you type in reverse call or something, you don't talk to an operator I don't think.

No thems homing pigeons. My carrier pigeons can trace their ancestry back to the famous WW1 carrier pigeon, Old Speckled Jim. The problem they will only deliver a message to you if you're in a trench.

"It’s grinding my piss now, I’m trying to find out where I’m having coffee in the morning with friends. I’m having to text

Text..??!! ...we will be back on the old fax next...

Thank god I kept a couple of carrier pigeons.

...but don't they only fly home??? Not entirely sure they are up on Sat nav and postcodes

No thems homing pigeons. My carrier pigeons can trace their ancestry back to the famous WW1 carrier pigeon, Old Speckled Jim. The problem they will only deliver a message to you if you're in a trench. "

They would have to go to sever room - use a laptop maybe. Login and restart everything manually. It’s bad how they can’t just re-root everything. I have seen this happen on a smaller organisation a number of years ago. They needed someone (me) on site for most of the day
