Top Tip: Got "Going Underground" by The Jam as your ringtone? Avoid harsh stares and howling relatives by remembering to switch to silent mode at a funeral.
How has a mobile phone wrecked your life?

First phone I ever had was one of those Ericsson flip-open ones. I moved to Germany in 2001, taking over from another Brit who was coming back home. I inherited everything including his mobile.
He told me "Bring a new one, this handset's shit."
So I did. I quite liked that Ericsson. I only noticed I'd forgotten the charger after trashing the existing handset. And I didn't know enough German to buy a replacement.
Oh well, never mind. I'll grab it when I'm at home next?
I forgot. Twice. Moved out in July, and I finally got the charger in March.
All the while paying the contract on this fucking phone so I'd be able to use it when I finally got it power.
I'm a forgetful barsteward sometimes.
