I've just had an emergency alert

Had an emergency government warning message. Made me jump.

There was no warning.

Feel sorry for people who got a hidden phone.

You can turn them off. 

Maybe you can on a smart phone, but I don't think I can on my stupid phone

We have a smart phone on which they're turned off and a dumb one which doesn't get them as it's 2g

2G got turned off round here along with 3G, you've got to have 4G or above now.
