    We no longer have easily used affordable Internet. BT have pulled the plug on our ISP's Free phone line so now we can only get Pay as You go. This means we can only work for a limited number of hours per month and only go on line for 59 minutes at a time without incurring a large phone bill. I will return ............eventually.

    I thought you were probably busy in the garden Eric. Little did I realise that you were only able to have limited access to your computer. I hope you can find a contract with a company that won't cost and arm and a leg.

    Well Eric, you do live in the middle of nowhere! ;) We have really slow broadband as we are just beyond the digital exchange. Stooopid technology! See you when we see you.

    Darn! I really enjoy reading your posts, so I hope you can resolve your problem soon. Can you use the 'net at your local library?

    We have limited access at the moment which makes doing anything other than a quick text message, very hard. The local library is a 20 mile drive and you get.............30 minutes of fairly unreliable Broadband access. Today we had to go into town and so we used it. Great, it took the whole time just to read the Mail!
