That’s odd, people are usually very interested when I show them this.

In the mid 80s I had one of the "Brick" phones it cost a fortune and I could only use it while leaning out of the attic window

I bought mine in the mid 90's when I moved onto my boat. Got it for £20. Those old bricks were pretty much indestructible.
On my headstone it will say: Please switch off mobile phones. I'm trying to get some sleep.

Superbly entertaining performer.
From another of his songs/poems about visiting a night club
It was so dim and dingy there
I went a pearler down the stair
"Did you miss the step then son?"
"No. I hit every bl**dy one"
from memory so may not be absolutely word perfect.
