Temp phone gem

Today I switched on a new tempory phone I bought to replace my broken phone while it is being repaired. It is a Dumb phone, a phone that does not have Android or IOs on it. This phone is not so Dumb to me because it has some very useful features. It has an FM radio on it with the ability to record the radio to SD card. The reason I got the phone was for emergencies like if my car broke down. People can now reach me if there is a serious problem. 

However, the ability to record FM radio is very nice because I love the radio, the radio is like a friend to me. Many smart phones have abandoned FM and DAB radio because they expect people to use an app such as tune-in but FM has an advantage over internet radio, it persists after the signal is lost. With many internet radio apps, the software gives up if the signal is interrupted.  I have been through so many challenging times in my life and the radio helped me through it.
