How did we organise our personal lives? If you were not at home to get telephone messages from friends/family how did you ever arrange anything? How did you get people together for a night out? Presumably everything had to be organised in advance as the chances of finding people at home for last minute stuff must have been remote?
What about business schedules? All planned well in advance, I seem to recall. If you were stuck in traffic, flight was late, train was late ... then I guess you were just late for your appointment ... no way to let anyone know.
Unless of course you could find a working phone box! We must have spent an inordinate amount of time either in or looking for phone boxes?
I guess it wasn't that long ago that we DID manage our lives without them. But how??
