Set top box question
I prolly know the answer to this already but i don't spose i could take my box into someone elses house where they have NTL too and use my box?

Only reason i ask is cos i have sky sports but this person i am visiting doesn't. (Tomorrow has 2 footy matches i dont want to miss!)

Actually, if you live very close to them, it'll probably work. NTL would definitely frown on it though.
