   I moved into this house about Ten years ago and, for some reason or   
   other, the Phone Landline socket is positioned on the far wall of the   
   main bedroom.   
      
   I don't know about you but I don't spend much time in my Bedroom ....   
   except when I'm sleeping .... so, after rushing from the Loungeroom to   
   the Bedroom when the phone rang .... only to find it was a Spammer   
   calling, I brought myself a Cordless phone with Answer machine built   
   into the Base station .... so, if the phone rings, I let the Answer   
   machine do its job .... and, usually, by the time the Answer machines   
   Welcome message has finished, the caller has hung up.   
      
   Job Done!! ;-P
