While we`re on the subject, anyone know if UK landline phones work out there? OH wants to take our cordless, but stuff I have seen suggests they don`t work or will need an adaptor. Any ideas?

I got one of these sent over:

UK phone works fine with it.

The coolant in the f/f has to be Aussie approved. We couldn't bring ours over but that was 4 years ago. Do a search. I'm too p1ssed to remember:rofl:

You can get adapters from Dick Smith's, you can't use UK phones in Aus, but I promise that I won't tell anyone.
