Not sure why this popped into my head but it occurred to me that when I was growing up in the 80's everyone used to pick up the phone and say their number.
I can still remember some friend numbers 30 years later as I can hear their Mum's answering the phone but I couldn't tell you my husbands mobile number now.
When did everyone stop doing this? Were we all subliminally conditioned to stop on the same day?

To wonder when we stopped reciting our number when answering the phone
