    hardly WWIII now is it?!
    If WW3 looked imminent, a lot of those Sky engineers might be drafted into the Signal Corps and REME etc, and if they're as bad as Bolshie claims, we'd lose.

    So yes, it is as bad as WW3

        Ditch Sky, ditch Virgin, just get a nice big flat screen and pipe your PC, DVD/VHS player, and games console(s) through it.

        Job's a good 'un.

            after having sky for several years I cancelled the contract several months ago and just started watching all the freeview channels, much more happier
            and kids now spend more time doing their homework and playing rather than
            being super glued to the box everynight!.

              Now you mention it, why do I pay Murdoch £260/yr for that?
              because your addicted to murdochs drugs, and you need the daily fix
              of those channels to function.

                    Which seemed to cause the nice lady who phoned me up one evening in the middle of my dinner some conceptual difficulty.
                    I tried to explain to them once that I was more interested in how good a film was, than how new it was.

                    They didn't understand that either.

                      I'd prefer it if you could buy a season ticket for your club so that you could watch all of their games. I'm not interested in Bolton v Stoke but I'd pay more than I do at the moment for me and my armchair to have access to every Man U game
                      Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

                      I preferred version 1!
