except in a boring play where you phone is off but you still want
to know if it might end soon. If I'm doing something time
critical like climbing a mountain, I find the watch much more
convenient.
Around the house I don't carry a mobile and whilst driving its
probably illegal to look at the phone, safer is lifting the wrist
to be visible in the windscreen.

If only, first rain for weeks and weeks yesterday. At least I

a friend of mine does that, when I needed to contact him he
wasn't expecting it, so he waited somewhere for a couple of
hours!
