So is it two words 16,2 ?

It's two words totaling 16 chars (it's actually 8,8 if anyone prefers it that way).

Traditionally, that would be "(8, 8)" not "16, 2 words".

It depends entirely on the publication - The Times would use (8,8) whereas The Spectator would use (16, two words).

Actually The Spectator would use "(16 two words)". See 21 October issue, page 59.

They are, indeed.
The other one, in the highly unlikely event that anyone was wondering, is a red shaver.

That's why the "Good grief" and the question mark. If you hadn't got it, I would never have.

I'm in New Zealand again. I've been here since last Thursday. I purchased a prepaid sim card from the major network (starting with V) which gave me phone calls and 100mb. It was working well last week but this morning when I tried to use the internet I found no service present. I rang the service line and was told there had been a "system downgrade" which is obviously the euphemism used here for crash and unfortunately I no longer had internet. This had been masked for a couple of days because I had been using the wifi provided at our accommodation. Obviously I suggested they reverse the system downgrade. Its been a long weekend and the lady suggested I call the technical support tomorrow. Let's see how that pans out.

errr, range the service line why? You already answered the question.
good on the kiwi's to be big enough to admit it, the Aussie system is even older (and yes: hence worse) but the people there still believe their telco is world class and 56k is 'maxed out light speed.'
