I'm currently surfing on my BT ADSL connection - The speed should be at least near 8Mb. Speed test just done:-
Sat, 15 Mar 2008 14:33:01 UTC
Test 1: 1024K took 12825 ms = 79.8 KB/sec, approx 658 Kbps, 0.64 Mbps
Test 2: 1024K took 8183 ms = 125.1 KB/sec, approx 1031 Kbps, 1.01 Mbps
Test 3: 1024K took 9553 ms = 107.2 KB/sec, approx 883 Kbps, 0.86 Mbps
Test 4: 2048K took 21567 ms = 95 KB/sec, approx 783 Kbps, 0.76 Mbps
Overall Average Speed = approx 839 Kbps, 0.82 Mbps
Edit: I don't live far from the exchange at all.
Guess I'll just have to switch to my VM connection if I want the speed because I know I can rely on a consistent overall speed.
Because as I said - I might be playing by TBR's rules when it comes to VM vs Sky threads.

Looks like that old Virgin network is slowing us Sky subscribers down again, remember folks £10pm.

Oh, do us a favor Mick, do the same tests back to back on your VM connection will you?
