how strange when someone rings up your child, they have a quick chat, end call then spend next 30 mins texting to each other instead of talking, mystery!

    Certain mobile top-ups have unlimited texting, my daughter has it and is forever clicking away. Mind you, I'm not much better. I love getting texts, especially the rude ones my hubby sends me during the day - ooops, too much info there!

    I think it's something to do with a text being there to reread over and over. Especially the funny or poignant ones. I know I read a lot of mine again. Does anyone else?

    um...suppose if you dont want to disturb someone you can sent text and jokes are good to keep so you can read them and show people.
