Having been on the other end of a message meant for someone else, I think that the caller SHOULD ring later to check if the message was received.
I have often found messages relating to people waiting for deliveries, or wanting to change dates - and they are not meant for me.

Why do people send you text then ring you to ask if you have received it?

Why when somebody clumsily bumps into you in the street, supermarket etc, you say "sorry"

This has got me going now...

And when I read the paper, my OH (who's already read it), tells me all the stories as soon as I turn the page and he sees the headlines.

And... when someone asks how you are, they stop listening when you tell them.

(Mind you, I'm probably guilty of that one lol)

Why do people take a photo of someone then immediately show it to that person and anyone else close by? We can see the real thing!!!

Any more??
