"How on earth do you text abroad"

Calling is easy enough
But txting just isn't working, wtfz

I want to text Canada, and the code is 1.
They can text me easily but...I can't them.

Do I just throw the 1 on the beginning or what?

Of course it is. It's the closest country to Hell (Scotland).

Aren't there those text-y phones made by that company that went uber-bust, or something? Amstrad, maybe.

I'm not interested in technicality

+44 (minus the 0 at the start)

That should sort you, young azul.

I was in Holland not so long ago, with a mate because I think holidays are a lot better with mates than family.

Anyway, from Holland I texted my mum to say that I'd arrived, and I just texted her normal mob number. I didn't bother with the +44 bit. It just worked normally for me.

Texting a broad's easy: They're people too.

Wouldn't that make Scotland the centre of the universe though?

No, Sheepy sweety - that's to text Britain from abroad.
Thanks for your help though, dear.

You still can.
My mum does it all the time, and it's the most annoying thing ever.

The worst is when she ends her texts with an x.
