Hi Craig, my old mate...
Like Hagar, I enjoy the complete freedom from being contacted by people wanting to know where I am, why am I there, what am I doing, why am I doing it, am I having an affair with someone else, why am I having an affair with someone else, do you love me, yes or no? and so it goes on, forever...
..and not only that, but everyone else around you are listening to this crap as well... :'(...!
Fer Christ's sake..!!!
If I want to contact someone I just ring them on the good-old land line phone, at my own convenience... :)...!

..just like the good old days before mobile phones... ;D...!

Mobile phones are much too stressful... ;)...!

Cheers mate... ;D...!

Well I personally hate speaking on any sort of phone there is. I generally only use my mobile for texting unfortunate people, phoning parents to get picked up and for asking exactly how many cable ties my friend needs... :P

Hi Woody...
When you get married and start breeding*, you will produce the next generation of children with special thumbs capable of quickly selecting text digits on the mobile phone...
WOW...!
That will make a change from the next generation of children who have mobile voice phones built into their heads.. 8)...!

Hooray hooray. About flippin' time. Its the law here, but the feds don't give 2 blue flying monkeys. Mind you they make a certain Insp. Clouseau look credible.
I have to say as a biker I feel this is long overdue. A good friend of mine was knocked off her bike by Mr. Sales Rep in his Vectra a while back. Unfortunately for him Belinda is built like a brick out-house, and likes those gloves with the metal studs on both sides. Apparently he looked v.surprised when her fist went through the window into his stupid grinning trap.
Couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke huh Paul? ;D
Forget Alpha Centurai though, lets go back to early Christianity, when if it offended you then it was cut off. Like to see them buggers use their phone then!!!!!!!

It's been the law here for a number of years. In order to use a mobile phone in a vehicle (at least in NSW), it must be 'hands free'. Anything else, and you get seen by a cop, you get booked.
I'm not sure of the fines or points, but it's pretty hefty.

We alays seem to come up with these things first, but then we are Australian, aren't we................... ;D ;)

Maybe our origins as a 'penal colony' (Fozzer) ;D, allows us to 'pre-empt' what the naughty people might do.  ;D ;)
