Re: Bloody parents!
Well, if you move to Devon you'll have no option but to get SKY. NTL aren't down that far. My parents live in cornwall and I don't think NTL or Telewest have heard of that county! Just chill out until you get down there. If you get it now you'd have all the hassle of arranging for it to be moved etc. I can tell you that there isn't much more on Sky additional to what they have on NTL, well, nothing worth having. The only thing better is the fact the red button isn't redundant and when sky set themselves something to do, it usually appears and roughly when they say it will.

Re: Bloody parents!
Yes... I know for a fact you can't get cable in my area of Devon... too rural! Rather surprisingly though, you can get Freeview(and Sky of course!). I think you can get Telewest (Eurobell) services but that's in the Exeter area...
According to the NTL postcode checker... I can still get one NTL service, but not sure if we'll be taking it up... something called NTL Freedom (£15 p/m).

Do not give this 51 year old TEACHER and MOTHER any sass or backchat DEAR,and watch the punctuation especially when using the first person singular.It should be I not i.As for the look,I perfected it 30 years ago and it's getting better all the while.

Re: Bloody parents!
Yes miss.... no miss.......
Isnt a "jobseekers" allowance supposed to mean that your out looking for a job, how come you got time to watch TV?..
Given that you will be into a 12 month contract when you get it, if your moving soon, maybe best to wait till then & maybe chip in for the install/gear get 2nd box etc.
Perhaps get yourself the DVD/VCR setup etc & have the current box wired up to your room too. Also buy yourself some other presents for now, like a trip to Tasmania or something (maybe even a flash car to impress the lasses...)
