Since there's a mobile phone thread, I only think it's fair we post our phones which we have in our humble little homes...

This is mine...

Nice wee phone. Show us your's then.

It's a BT Freelance XD100. It's less than a month since I had a landline restored at my flat, so I bought this for about £20. Maybe £25.

It's fookin rubbish. It sounds rough, and there is at least a one second lag between me answering it and my voice being heard by the caller. I say "caller", but I mean Steve. My mate. He is the only person who knows the number. Everyone else calls my mobile.

Given that the mobile sounds better I think I shall keep it that way.

I had a BT line hooked up to my new place yesterday, so I nipped over to Argos (which is a 2 min walk) and got myself a cheap phone for about £15.

I only had the landline hooked up so I could get broadband installed, but I dont think I'll get around to that for a little while.

Nothing beats the moby, though.

The moby? That's what chavettes and children call their mobiles!

I have a good old GPO model 746 in 'hotline phone' red. Beautiful piece of kit.

BT Easicom 1000 (in bathroom)
Panasonic cordless (in bedroom)
Oregon Scientific Weatherphone (in lounge)
BT PaperJet Fax (in office)
Earpiece Phone (in office)

Does this count? It's not technically ''mobile'', you know.

1x BT Tribune Pulse Telephone 9802AR;

2x BT Relate 80 Tone Telephone (one plugged into business line);

3x Phillips DECT 2153 Cordless Telephone with Answering machine;

1x Brother Fax machine, no idea what model, business line;

1x BT Internal bellset 50B (1981), soon to be removed due to the fact it's not filtered and causing noise on the line. [It's a ringer to enable us to hear the phone on all 3 levels, not required now due to purchase of DECT phones]

1x BT Plug In Ringer, never used.

1x Panasonic Answering machine, buggered.
