Is this true? Where do you get this info from?

Link -sorry got dates mixed up -it's from July

[TimberWolf]

the fact is, whoever thought up the minimum wage concept was too short sighted and naive to realise it would infact become for a lot of people the maximum wage !

I think they knew what they were doing with the minimum wage, since I don't believe mass immigration would have been accepted or tolerated had this minimal safety net not been in place.

DBA,

not sure.

I haven't wasted money on that type of technology yet, still not convinced the pictures are better than CRT and waiting for the prices to come down.

Oh they are (Unless you're old and/or blind)

Taffe,

no offence taken, and you are right there are horses and carts.

Main point is seeing is believing the standard of living in these parts and the disposable incomes.

Zeit, nice one, I left before new year and naturally didn't have to pay on the outward journey.

Oops - I missed it

Crossed posts with MB - not meant to offend our eastern european friend (who I believe is a legend on this board) - not now, but 10 years ago I've seen it with my own eyes carts and horses were doing the rounds in most parts of the now EU countries, this was like here 100 years ago (unless we are talking about our own gipsies of course)

I tell you what,

if you could aim your satellite dish at Czech TV 1 you'd get the UK premiership games for free as they show them on the normal free to view tv channel

In high definition?

Are you serious MB?
Next time you are in London, can you come and fix me up with a dish that picks up all the live premiership footie at 3.00 on Saturdays. I am fed up with watching it in a pub packed to the rafters.

jeeeez so the maximum wage for a big chunk of people is 5 pound 50 !!! in a world of today's cost of living !!

amazing, was in frankfurt last year (and by the way, the supermarket prices there are the same numbers as in the UK except the currency is euros!!!)

and was in a Lidl and they had an advert on the board for a shop worker and they were offering 12 euro 75 !


And then people like Taffe on here think Eastern europe is 100 years behind the UK on standard of living - oh dear - poor lad.

Isn't £17.10 quite cheap for fish & chips for 4?

[Ardesco]

the fact is, whoever thought up the minimum wage concept was too short sighted and naive to realise it would infact become for a lot of people the maximum wage !

anyway, what/how much is the minimum wage ?

Milan.

• £5.52 per hour for workers aged 22 years and older
• A development rate of £4.60 per hour for workers aged 18-21 inclusive
• £3.40 per hour for all workers under the age of 18, who are no longer of compulsory school age.

Hi Zeit,

I have the multiswitch, collected from the old folks when I was over at chrimbo, bridge is 5 pound 10 these days !!! and went and bought four fish and chips from the local chippy and it was 17 pound 10 !!!! cost of living eh.

Anyway, have now got the multiswitch, and the next steps are:

connect the cables ijn the loft to the multi switch

connect the multiswitch to the kitchen cable (that's where I do all the prototyping at the mo)

buy a decoder

see if it all works

if it doesn't work my first guess will be that I have a quad and not a quattro lnb


anyway, should have these steps completed by the end of the month
