But I bet your childhood phone did not look like this, as we did not have childhood phones! I think you are slightly younger than me.

As a rule, I just can't help myself!
TNG dangles the bait & WHOOSH I'm on the hook.
But not this time - oh no - not this time!!!
I may look older than TNG - but I had a hard newspaper round when I were a lad - 4 blocks of high rise flats - all with continuously broken lifts!
In fact I would have to get up 2 hours before I went to bed to fit everything into my day!

My childhood phone was some old pennies for the phonebox down the road, didn't even have a home phone. I guess I must be old
When I was 'younger' we communicated with two tin boxes joined together with a piece of string! Love the simple design shown here.

Welcome, new artist! I grew up with a rotary-dial telephone in the house.

That was great. I love the realization that comes when you're doing one of these, and it was a delight to be like, "Oh my god, is that Snake?" incredible.

Fun one! The blue Motorola? That was one of the best cellphones back in the day.

When my son was small, I told him that we didn’t have cell phones when I was growing up. His response was, well then how did you call people from a car?
replyYoung people today don't know what a rotary phone is, much less how to operate it. Remember "party lines"?

For me it looks like Nokia 3310 :D but it wasn't childhood phone, bot normal cellphone :D
