Naw... last year, our tree was in a separate room that we normally don't spend a lot of time in.... we finally took it down in July. We were quite impressed how resilient the plastic needles were  .

...as it's "go live" day for my new Fibre To The Cabinet connection.
Presumably, when it does "go live" my existing modem won't be able to cope and I'll be netless. :bwaaa:
And the engineer will be here to replace my filtered master socket plate with...a filtered master socket plate. And plug in the modem. Sometime between 13:00 and 18:00, for "three hours" 
Still, it should be worth it...but if I suddenly stop talking to you in mid conversation, I'm probably not being rude: just probably not connected any more.
Getting strangely excited about this, and not entirely sure why...

I've signed up to have my phone and internet transferred from two thieving b'tard companies to only one thieving b'tard company.
I was with the remnants of the GPO for the phone put as we never really use it, it has become a waste of money.
The interwebs was through Thieving Aussie Incorporated, but as they charge extra to NOT use their phone or stupidity generators I wanted out.
We will switch over to definitely not Paris at the end of the month for a gnat's tadger more than I was paying to both of the other gets. A saving of around 40% and all the free beards you can eat.

I'm staying with the same supplier - ChatChat - but upgrading from ADSL to ADSL Turbo Nutter Sunshine Via Fibre.
Interestingly, my neighbours are both with A Large UK Telecommunications Company (that still thinks it's the only one) and they via "stock" ADSL get 1/4 of the connection speed I do despite being the same distance from the exchange and using the same cables. Perhaps there is truth in the rumour that Certain Companies are "slugging" their "standard broadband" customers in order to push them to the more profitable fibre?

Really, I heard he was lost at C making a pier to pier network protocol.

Was it the bright red 'just boiled' or mottled brown 'still alive' lobster suit?

If you can read this, that young socket-installing gentleman has not yet arrived. If you cannot read it, I suppose he has already sent you an invoice.

In Canada a decent Internet connection costs anywhere between $60 and 120 (canadian per month).
I know for a fact that in Bulgaria for same quality connection people pay around 5 to 10 times less.
Apparently because Canada has such a high living standard.
I was just wondering want is the cost of a decent internet connection around the world?

Tax Avoider?
Did you win Friday? Did I miss it.

I almost found it, without knowing it.

Didn't Jimmy Carr get into trouble for tax evasion? I'm pretty sure he didn't visit jail though.
|
|
|
|
|
No, he avoided it, not evaded it - and you're up for tomorrow!
Care to explain?
