Alternative to BT / Demon Ripoff ?
Thu, 30 Jul 2009 14:21:09 -0700 (PDT)
I'm paying BT for a line rental and this is costing me ¡ê50 a quarter.

Lots and lots of disconnects and web pages not loading today at Plusnet
Thu, 30 Jul 2009 17:44:08 +0100
Mobile BB is fine. On the Plusnet ADSL quite a few disconnects (green

It does. There are some *really* dangerous people in usenet land. Nasty

Been to Ashton under Lyne to see the Portland Basin Museum.
It's at the junction of the Lower Peak Forest Canal ...
