We don't have a landline anymore having entered into new broadband and cellphone contracts when moving into the new house. Up north the contract we had included a landline which didn't work very well and it seems that the only people who called us on it were scammers and Spark themselves. We decided to abandon this option.
We still have phones on the walls here though.
There are three of them - one for each level. It turns out that they are an integrated intercom system whereby visitors ringing the doorbell can ask to be let in (or otherwise) and contact can be made internally from one level to another. Neat eh?
I experimented with it yesterday, calling The Old Girl from the garage level to the top bedroom level and asking for a cup of tea. This would have necessitated her going down one floor to the kitchen, making a cuppa and carrying it down another level to me. You can imagine her reply!
"At least I can say that I tried".

Yes, very trying.
Your jokes are improving.
You set the floor quite high.
Yes, well, I did think that it would be a one-off.
Good morning.
My new computer chair arrived today. I assembled it and have positioned it in the study. Lynn laughed at it but hey! What does she know about home furnishings?
Well, admittedly, a lot more than me but I like my new chair. In fact I think that I'll write a post about it tomorrow,
