#OnThisDay 32 yrs ago, the first text message was sent by British engineer Neil Papworth on December 3, 1992, and read simply, "Merry Christmas".

However, there was no mobile phone that could reply via text until 12 months later.

4. They never grit the road over Standedge Moor because it leads to Lancashire ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
