			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Seeing as I had to get a BT land line installed at my house to get ADSL broadband delivered down and that BT insist I make chargeable calls every month so as to not have to pay for installation, I went out and bought my first ever land line telephone. I went into Tesco and bought the best looking handset I could find that offered the features I think I need for a price that didn&#8217;t make me audibly snort.</p>
<p>I really don&#8217;t know what it is about modern day telephones but the mean price of handsets in Tesco was <em>over</em> Â£50! That strikes me as ridiculous.</p>
<p>Anyway, I plumped for a BT branded Stratus 1500. I have no idea whether it was worth the twent-odd quid I paid for it, but it fitted the criteria above.</p>
