R.I.P. Cat mobile phone. 2013 - 2021

[ColinJ]

I used to have a case but to much faf if you get a call.

I agree with those horizontal flip cases. I had one and the front cover always got in the way when using the phone. I now have a vertical flip case; a much more practical design. The front cover flips down and hangs out of the way.

I am not a big user of my mobile phone but wouldn't like to be without it, just for emergency situations. I wouldn't go on a ride without it, just in case. Same applies to my wife.
I use my laptop far more than my mobile.

Mobiles are so convenient I do most things on mine , wish they had been around when I was younger .

I'm glad they weren't around when I was younger. All them camera phones would have been a tad restricting.

I use my laptop far more than my mobile.

Pre-DVT, I hardly used my laptop. I would sit at my desk and use my tower PC with its 24" monitor.

Once the clots had damaged the veins in my left leg though I found that I could no longer sit at a desk or table for long. I can sit at a dining table just long enough to eat, but then I have to get up and move because my leg starts to get really swollen.

As a result of this I have been using laptops for the past 9 years. Fortunately, I am perfectly comfortable sitting on a sofa with my legs up on a footrest. I have the laptop on a laptop tray. The screen is only a fraction of the size of my old monitor, but I am sitting much closer to it and it is much better quality, so that's good.

I use my phone or a tablet in bed but much prefer typing on a proper keyboard and looking at a bigger screen.

There will be probably be someone at your local market or phone shop selling them for a few pounds!

Yes that's what I was hoping sorry about your health problem.

Thanks - I was actually one of the lucky ones!

I can walk and cycle without any problems. Basically, as long as I keep moving or elevate my legs, I am ok.
