Skypey birthday to you

I remember the days when a telephone call was an event. 
Although by the time I was 10, most households had their own telephone. 
Pepe remembers when there was only one per street. And the woman from the switchboard knew everybody's business. 
My kids don't find anything remotely magical about having a video call with their cousin in Seville. Obviously. 
And their kids will laugh at the pre-ocular-implant era when people actually had to look at a screen to see images...
