Odd, I thought the joke was referring to Thatcher as great

Did my best to save the planet today.

Planted Horse Chestnut and Oak tree saplings.

Probably too little too late, but will hopefully piss the neighbours off in 100 years time

Re: The Happy Thought Thread

So my BT BB went down and fix likely Wednesday .
I bought a 5GHZ Router a while ago and had a 3 sim in it but the speeds were poor. When the net went down I was considering options and knew I had a Lebara Sim spare with no plan attached so I threw a 25 quid unlimited data plan at the sim and put it in the router . Lebara do cheap deals if I was waiting for a sim I would have had 50% for 3 months so unlimited for £12.50 and seeing as you do not use the number there is no reason not to set up a new sim every 2.5 months and get unlimited data for very cheap.
Now the maddest part see the screen shot below. 3 times the download and 7 times the upload ( of FTTC) on this 5G sim that can be swapped every 2.5 months to ensure uninterrupted connection for current price of £37.50 which works out at £15 per month
Yes you have to create a new account to get the deal but golly it is cheap. I will be switching the the deal sim next month and keep it going as a cheap backup for future or maybe even as my main driver

Well you learn something new everyday. I never knew those type routers existed or such a way round getting broadband that way. Good info and good price.

Sadly where I live I can't even get 1-2 bars on 3g. My phone is stuck on wifi calling 90% of the time.
