00:00Yeah, I mean, I can't remember the last time I used a landline, to be honest.
00:03In my office, we don't have them.
00:05We don't even have a telephone number.
00:07I have a landline in the house, or at least a port,
00:11but it's only really there for the internet.
00:13I don't even know if I've got a landline number.
00:16I don't know. I never use it.
00:18I've gone digital.
00:20If I have a power cut, I cannot make a phone call.
00:23You know, the landline should have stayed.
00:26I can't understand the cost of keeping copper wire,
00:28but that should have stayed for emergencies.
00:34Just purely for emergencies.
00:36I think if someone wanted to get hold of me,
00:38they could probably get hold of me from the electoral register
00:42for half a dozen forms that I'm filling in all the time.
00:46They know my address.
00:47They know my national insurance number.
00:49They know my tax codes.
00:51They're probably searching me on social media.
00:54Giving them a telephone number, I think, is the least of my worries.
00:58It's for always a check.
01:00Just letting it out.
01:01Put your lungs out.
01:01I think you're right.
01:03Yeah, that's a sections that I can apparently just have put them in.
01:04That capacity testing for getting her connections with the market.
01:07Two more cups, you're right.

01:09You might make time to be in love for examples.
01:10This is not going to take hold of me.
01:11You don't know what you're doing.
01:11Either way, you're doing all things in my work.
01:13Then you can go somewhere.
01:14You are all right.
01:16You're right.
01:17Jasmine Istvestied,
01:18unless you're wrong.
01:18So I'm sorry.
01:18It's important that I do not see a little bit.
01:19You're right.
