      And totally agree. I went over broadband limit once and it slowed down to a rate that was 'unacceptable'. "I can't take it!!!" scream would be about right. But think how spoilt we are nowadays, sheesh.

        3. Peddle round the neighbourhood

              I was looking at pay as yo go broadband but I'm now seriously thinking of just getting free dial up, freeview box and telling Branson to sod off.

              Am I mad (as well as tight)?

              Got it!
              Buy ( Sorry tightwad) I meant pinch long Ethernet cable
              Peddle round to AtW's,
              Drill hole in wall
              Free broadband!
