In Case of Emergency - I.C.E

[Biff]

I.C.E – Not the slippery sort but a habit that growing in practice across the UK. It’s the entry of a mobile phone number entitled I.C.E - In Case of Emergency - in your own mobile phone. This number corresponds to someone you'd like to be contacted in case of emergency. So should you happen across someone unfortunate enough to have been involved in an accident - firstly dial 111 (of course) then take a peek in their mobile phone's directory for a number entitled I.C.E - and give their requested contact a ring.

Damned good idea if you ask me.

That is a GREAT idea...

*add's I.C.E. to my mobile*

You should copyright that! 'tis a good idea, but there would have to be widespread understanding what it meant. I could see it catching on quick, what with all the communication between people these days.

[unhingedlizard]

Me'thinks i'll be doing that too..

Maybe you should make this a sticky post and tell every biker you know... then at least if a biker stops at an accident they will know to look for it... and hopefully it will be there...

[bugjuice]

already did it from the other thread it came up in.

Tip tho: Add 'a' or 'aa' to the front, then it'll be the first number on your phone. Worst thing is to be scrolling thru someone else's phone in a panick.

My phone has: 'a I.C.E. Ashley' & 'aa I.C.E.2 Kelly'

Only down side is when Ash and Kelly call/text me, this is what comes up now. But I'm happy to live with that. I also have the same thing (with their numbers) on a piece of paper, incase the phone is damaged or the battery comes off (pass number to switch it on). It's a great idea, as long as the phone still works!!

I have ICE in my phone already, but it is the number for ice. Which is good for bruising, so may be useful.

What about your life itself?

Succesfully survived 46.2 years of it so far.

Surely more "good luck" than "good management"?

Nothin' to do with mobile fucken phones though, I hate it with a passion but find myself for some reason addicted to it.
