    I don't know if it's just me pronouncing it wrong, but it sounds like this is about to become a sticky. Do you have a varied selection, or is it all from one source?

    Ok
    I think landlines are becoming less used, but obviously you do what's best for you
    I just wish I could get rid and stop paying for it

    They tend to be listening to such depressing music that it's bloody difficult to collect though

    At this juncture it may be worth pointing out that I'm sat in the garden with a large scotch
    Feel free to ignore any inane babbling ( from me...feel freeto get annoyed by everyone else's)

    Most people have a landline, that is how they get their broadband. Whether they use the phone is up to them.Relying on a mobile only is risky if you are need of emergency services.

    True enough
    I have one to call out on, I just don't receive calls on it
    However I think that if we didn't all live in the KCom monopoly less of us would have a landline at all, because you don't need one with most providers

    When I get nuisance calls I just say that I will go get who ever they are asking for and put the phone down in front of the TV or radio and see how long they will wait for I have great pleasure in this when I'm listening to Burnsy and Swanny

    You need a landline, but not always a telephone line rental ... I don't think
