    Demon, the wa.....!!!!

    Would appear we've hit our cap at work, god knows why we were on a bloody home office conenction anyways..

    Were now capped to 128kb until the 22/6/07...

    Rang them up, they wont upgrade us or remove the cap and we cant pay for anymore bandwidth...

    Need a new ISP me thinks as Demon have just lost themselves an account...

    I've had fair usage policy e-mails every day from them for the last week. It's crazy that the home office broadband is only 60GB/month whereas my home 'home' connection is 50GB.

    Have to cut down on my pr0n I suppose. Going blind is all very well but the prospect of a 128kb/s connection is far far worse.

    Stupid I know, 60gb/month over 50 users doesnt add upto a great deal per day, especially when your emailing artwork backwards and forwards...

    Had some interesting conversations with "Raj" tho in indian

    You're lucky! I don't get any even vaguely indian sounding indian people.

    "Hi, this is 'DAVE', I'm from 'ENGLAND'."

    Oh really, where are you from?

    "ENGLAND"

    Aaaaaah, right.
