Installing phone sockets
My phone socket is in the kitchen and I would like to have it in the front room instead, so I can run my T box and my phone from there instead of my T box running wirelessly, I would also like a socket in my spare bedroom.
Does anyone have any rough idea as to the cost of this? I should imagine if I ask Telstra it will cost alot more, I have emailed one guy I found on the internet and am waiting for him to get back with a quote but would welcome any suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Installing phone sockets
My friendly electrician did mine for me. Is the house on stumps? If so, quite easy to run the wiring under the house.
I am aware that it can be mighty difficult to get an electrcian; we are fairly well off in that regard.
Hope this helps,

That quote sounds reasonable to me, if it's for the complete job.

Whacko, hopefully that's it sorted for you. 
I just need to install another rainwater tank now
...more digging in the garden (when it stops raining, perversely enough
