All this talk of BT going over to "voip" by 2025 has left me in a quandary - maybe someone can help me out?

Our router is upstairs in the study with my main computer. We have a phone there as well as the main one in the living room and another in the main bedroom. Now I understand the idea is  that we will just disconnect the main phone from the present socket - but will it work if I connect the study phone to our router upstairs? 

Can't say it's weighing very heavily on my mind right now as we rarely use (or answer) the landline and we haven't had any notification from BT about this yet, but maybe someone more technically able than me can advise?

Have another trip to Bath RUH on Monday for Mrs M to have another x-ray and consultation about her broken finger. Seems to have stopped hurting and the swelling has gone down a lot but she was told it'll be 12 weeks before she has full use again. So I'm standing by to cook the Christmas Dinner in the van - can't really go wrong with bangers and mash, can you? 

I think its time you tried a modern bus as you would be amazed. The ones we used recently on the Harrogate to Leeds route were exceptional - the upper deck consited on two seats on the nearside and just one on the offside. All the seats were leather recaro style.  Air suspension mean the buses just float along the roads. 

Travelling by bus to a city has major advantages:

the driver can enjoy the elevated views, no need to find or pay for parking in a strange city, no need to even explore on a circular route as you can get on the bus anywhere that suits. Don't forget that with modern technology, in most areas you can check what time the bus will actually arrive with live updates.

Obviously we don't have to drag (or push) a dog along and Wetherspoons are available for a pleasant toilet break - can't remember the last time I used a "council" public convenience.

Buses don't go everywhere so in those situations we obviously use the car.
