Do you remember telephone numbers of family and friends?

Ever since mobile phones have become common, I simply store all phone numbers on my phone and don't bother to memorise or remember them at all. I know only my wife's phone number as it is similar to mine. At the workplace I remember the common extension numbers I use as they are 4 digits and easy to remember. Do you remember phone numbers these days?

@mesbakh some numbers are difficult. Phone numbers are fairly long.

I do not have the ability of memorizing other mobile numbers. The only number I memorize is mine. There are few landline numbers especially those important and I am keeping them as well with my phone book.
