In Case of Emergency

Great Idea [clap], but just make sure its just a phone number and not an address or any other personal details.

I had this information in an email yesterday, but chose to ignore it, as it was one of those emails that had been sent to a whole address book and it was asking me to send it to everyone in my address book. I thought it was some kind of a time wasting email, so I deleted it. I then read about the campaign in the paper today and realised it was a bona fide suggestion. The email I received suggested not just having one contact number but putting several in - ICE1, ICE2 etc

That's the trouble with a lot of these 'round robin' type emails, that urge you to send it on to 20 other people and your dreams will come true.............When I got a 'real' one, I just ignored it!!

I received the email this morning and passed it on to everybody in my address book. I think it is an excellent idea, can't understand why nobody thought of it sooner!

just added it on my mobile. barbara
