You know how you used to do this to stop the other person hearing something you wanted to say privately?

Well you can’t do that with mobile phones.
I don’t trust my phone as far as I could throw it :lol:

You clearly haven't discovered the mute button, Lindsey. :wink: :wink:

Phone calls should be made privately.

Okay, I admit I'll be on a phone call, using a Bluetooth earphone, whilst out walking my dog; often a useful time to chat with my brother overseas BUT . . .

...when I go to the Gym, usually in the mid-afternoon, there will often be someone in the changing room on a business call of one sort or another (usually using earphones/buds) but I can clearly hear their side of the conversation.

I'm not sure that the person they are speaking with would appreciate me hearing about their business. :grumpy: :grumpy:
