“The grandkids gave me a beautifully wrapped Christmas present. When I opened it, the box said apple. I thought it meant dried fruit. Turned out to be one of them takeaway telephones young people like.
“I’ve never tried a takeaway telephone. Grandkids showed me how to use it with finger sliding, pointing, tapping.
“They showed me all sorts of things inside it which were very surprising.
“Now I have lost it. Must have put it down somewhere, forgot it and walked off. If you happen to find it, my telephone has a white body and the front is black glass.”
