[00:10.52]1  Q My wife and I recently had a guest
[00:14.27]who book two calls on her mobile phone
[00:16.99]while she was with us.
[00:18.83]Both interrupted our conversation
[00:20.49]while we listened in uneasy¹ silence.
[00:22.88]Can you advise us on the social rules
[00:24.85]of using mobile phones?
[00:26.71]I hate my aural² space being invaded
[00:29.26]on public transport and in restaurants,
[00:31.66]and dislike my home being turned into
[00:33.90]someone else's telephone box.
[00:37.50]A Space does not allow me
[00:40.03]to go into the details of mobile phone use here
[00:43.80]However, I can quite certainly say
[00:45.89]that your guest was inconsiderate
[00:48.19]and displayed very bad mobile manners.
[00:51.34]It is very poor form to take calls
[00:53.50]when in any sortof social situation with others
[00:56.94]Instead she should have left her phone either
[00:59.38]completely switched off,or on voice mail,
[01:02.18]thus giving you her undivided attention.
