    Morning all. Today is recovering from visting Legoland yesterday. Fab day but OMG how noisy are the planes -how on earth does anyone live in Windsor? Is the castle soundproofed?

    Hope everyone is ok.

    MAMBURY could you give me an idea of how you are finding using skype for your 2nd phoneline.
    need to get one for my new job but not sure whether to get new landline or skype.

    Hey Jo - Skype is okay.... works like a normal phone but the sound quality isn't quite tha same. For £4 a month it works fine!! Could you negotiate the new bosses to install a new line for you?? Or try the skype for a little while as there is no strict contract. I bought my phone from Amazon

    Thanks Mambury. It will be at their expense but skype seems a cheaper option for them possibly.

    Hey Saucy....

    Jo - why not trial the skype and see how it goes.... I like the fact that if I am not about then I unplug the phone from the lappie and it automatically rings out to answer phone....

    what a day.... anyone want to adopt a couple of kids?

    was looking at the ones that don't need pc connection mambury and they start at about £80 so quite a big investment but maybe should lower sights a bit and look at ones that plug in computer.
