Government Emergency Mobile Alert

Even though the war had been over for a few years when I was born, food rationing went on for several years. I have a ration book with my name on it.

What makes me worry a bit though is that I can remember things from many years ago vividly but I struggle to remember yesterday.

 

I can remember faces but not the names to go with them. I have lost the person who could.
I always have difficulty remembering numbers, even my car reg which is a nuisance in a modern car park.
What you say about memory makes sense though ...

Me too but I didn't like to say incase people thought I'm old fashioned ... well I suppose I am. Who cares.

 

Us programmers had to change all the Ys to Ks. So the months of January, February and July were renamed to Januark, Februark, and Julk.

 

My head hurts.

 

I heard it said that those on 3g are mostly the ones that didn't get it.
I haven't got a clue what I'm on but I know its not 5g.

They keep putting up lots of masts around here that are, I think, 5g but I'm not sure I can even get 4g around here, they seem to have jumped 4g.

 

I thought 3G was two tin cans and a length of string.

 

I think I read it wrong, as usual, is there a network known as three? or 3.

 

Yes, but you're still right either way.

Three, as in the network, is reported to have had the biggest problems.

3g, as in the version of the underlying infrastructure and the capabilities of ancient phones, were not supported.

 

Did hear my phone go off n& I have all the sounds on my mobile at their highest setting for the time being as I'm as deaf as a doornail - well, at least in my left ear! Had an infection that's caused a perforation in the eardrum so will need a few weeks for it to grow back again & therefore hear properly again. The message must have entered as afterwards I saw a message asking if I wanted to receive alerts in the future.
