Awww I'm dissapointed :( I only reqad this cos i heard a rumour that Bill C was gonna flash his behind in the Trafford centre and as I have never been there I booked a ticket on Virgin trains just to see the best entertainment.:rolleyes:

I think WE are safe.But just in case perhaps you need to get along to the local health spa place and use the sunbed for a while. ;)

Re: NTL bought out
 

I've read through most the thread but not all so apologies if this has been explained before. I believe there are two possible explanations

1) ntl sold off its ConsumerCo Indirect telephony business a few years ago to one of the power companies, so it may be something to do with that.

2) Centrica may be in a deal with ntl so that their staff get a discount, ntl and several other companies (Lloyds TSB for one) have all joined together to bring a staff benefits and discounts programme. 20% of admissions to Alton towers, cheap ex-fleet cars, 10% of HMZ etc, etc.

It's probably most likely no.2.

You booked a ticket on Virgin Trains to see this?

I booked a ticket on Virgin Galactic to try and avoid seeing it!

Re: NTL bought out
 

You made a wise choice :D

Re: NTL bought out
 

You didn't! Best hope no-one is looking for somewhere to park a bike if you end up doing it :p:

Maybe just maybe the service to the customer might get better? :confused:

Re: NTL bought out
 

Is there a bike parking problem in central Manchester?

Re: NTL bought out
 

What, if Bill C drops his trousers in the Trafford centre?:D

Re: NTL bought out
 

Just the opposite I'd imagine. All those 'upset shoppers' rushing home to email 'The Press' about the new bike rack installed indoors at the TC

Re: NTL bought out
 

You can see the headlines:

"Bike rack not all its cracked up to be"

"Commuter gets off Tram, but somehow misses his slot at new bike park facilty"

Re: NTL bought out
 

Oh God what have I started :)

Re: NTL bought out
 

If people don't like the sight of the bike rack they could always put a cap on it. :D :D
