Quick poll - shall I chop off my phone extension?

[spicemonster]

Just had a load of work done in my flat. I have a main BT socket in the hall with an extension cord going to a socket in the 'master (bleugh) bedroom' which is currently loose but used to be threaded round doors with those little clip things. I have a cordless phone and so don't use the extension and haven't used it in years. Do you reckon I can just chop it off or do you think that if I sell (which is what I'm planning to do in a few years' time), people will be horrified that there is only one phone point and I should just put it all back where it was?

I have a pair of pliers in my itchy fingers ...

chop it off!

Ooh that was quick! I'm dying to do it. Stupid thing

If I get one more person saying I should, I'm going to do it

chop it off.

it would not bother me to have just one socket

On your head be it MmeLindt

If and when you sell your flat, and the prospective buyer says, "Why on earth do you only have one phone socket" you can tell them it was my fault.

"Someone from the internet told me to do it"

And no, I'm normal. Honest

Wouldn't bother me, surely most people have a cordless phone plugged into main socket and then have the other "slave" phones dotted around the house and just plugged into a normal electrical socket.

Maybe when you tell them you were told to do it by people on the internet you could cock your head to one side and twitch a bit

I chopped ours off when ds came along and pinched our study for his bedroom. We had three phones in a tiny flat, all from one socket.
