Thanks for the reply, it was a rather tongue-in-cheek comment as I am aware of the congestion issues! I used to have a rock solid 10Mb service until 2-3 years ago, but that has been deteriorating as they have oversold the product and under-invested in the infrastructure so it is no longer deliverable!
