I still remember cranking a phone and asking the switchboard operater to put me through to a number hahaha.
It was the days when the switchboard operaters knew everyones private business and affairs.
Talking about dialling this is my favorite table where I sit to read.
All that I can say about the new speed of life is that you are correct, as we are losing ourselves in the information overflow stream.
Switchboards are a "bit" before my time, but I am from a small town, so everyone knew everyone's business! :D
Interestingly, our house doesn't even have a landline coming into it anymore. I don't know when I last saw a private landline and most businesses are all mobile too.
Looks like a great snack btw :)
Hahaha, I know exactly what you mean and even in this modern day it hasn't stopped. Just became much more dirtier.
Yeah, landlines are a thing of the past and I built our carport roof with the wooden poles that they used for the landlines.
Lemon bread (cake) with strawberry jam (jelly?) and fresh cream.
It is good to repurpose.
Jam in my lingo
