Does anyone miss the old telephone which had spring cord in it.

@hippyjoe1955 I didn't use that type of phone ever but it would have been fun

@TheOrionbeltseeker I remember my Mom using it. I was too little. I knew all the neighbours were listening because Mom listened in on all the other phone calls. She called it rubbering short for rubbernecking. Meaning looking into other people's business. My Grandmother died in our house and at 2 AM Mom phoned the doctor to let him know she had passed. At 6 AM she went to phone the rest of the family to let them know and heard the neighbour discussing the passing of my Grandmother.

I have felt lately that rubbernecking is wrong. Sometimes, you want to help people in distress and you are caught otherwise so no Rubbernecking from now onwards. I like the phrase and I will use it in nearly everything today.

More interesting was putting coins in at a phone booth.
