The amazing-ness of modern life

OK so my daughter has gone off to Finland for 3 months with her partner and baby. I'm used to seeing them twice a week and it goes to down to nothing.

The amazing thing is this Skype thing. Half an hour of chat and fun with sound and vision. And that costs zero?? Nothing??

Not long ago such things were science fiction.

OK I'll go off and be old somewhere else...but seriously a phone used to a big black thing that belonged to the post office. You actually were not allowed to own one.
