Extending phone line wiring

I need to extend the phone line as im moving the socket. Question is, what is the best procedure to join 2 telephone wires, are there special connectors for this?

I was told that i need these connectors but not sure where to get them from? http://www.wikihow.com/images/8/80/Phone-wire-tangle%2C-exterior-riser%2C-London%2C-UK-4.jpg

    Which socket are you planning on moving? If its the master you are not allowed. (legally anyway!)
    You can get them on Ebay for pennies.

    Are you removing the current socket or would an extention cable not do?
    Cable can be picked up off Amazon/ebay for about £3 for 10 metres or locally at Homebase or even Argos for about £8 for the same length (including male/female connections)
