I think you mean the 22nd... some people who phoned cs at the beginning of the upgrades got the completion date for the upgrades as the 22nd. Also the upgrade announcement on ntlhell states that it will be done by the 22nd as well so i hope its true as im still waiting  , but im not too hopeful :P

Where is nthell?
Still not sign of movement in Grimsby, I'm guessing we'll get it when Nottingham gets it.

A couple of years ago an engineer was telling me that 10% of customers on analogue services were using 90% of available bandwidth, allowing for changes in proportions since that still leaves a sizeable amount of bandwidth to be freed up.
