City Fibre cabled up our area a year or so ago. Toob Broadband offerred a deal for 900Mb up / down and it has been rock solid. We then started getting offers from the usual suspects such as EE offering " Superfast Broadband 300Mb for £29.99* The price was going to increase each year by inflation plus an " uplift ", Toob price is fixed for the duration. As ever, it pays to shop around.

I am with EE. To be honest the price Has gone up and up. I now pay an average of £46 a month and any calls I make IE zero cost extra..

I might take a look at that. Thanks

Ironing done.

Student finance hassling me for all sorts of info I don't have, and I dont have it because I never received it from them in the first place. Politely, but firmly, lost my rag with them, told them I'm supposed to be resting and won't be running round after then and to do their worst.

And now I'm going for a little lay down.

Day two of retirement. Inverter and batteries all connected and tomorrow fitting the ring main. Taps work and fast later in the week.

New VW badge fitted to the grill of me van. The blue background is worth a good 10bhp.

Tuning box turned off in readiness for next weeks MOT. I doubt it'd cause an emissions fail, but why take the chance when 3 seconds with a small screwdriver turns it to "off".

Agree with you there Mo Tesco free range changed from brown to horrid gleaming white [presumably all the brown layers got early 'retirement']. These new white eggs dont crack normally for some reason ie the crack can be lengthwise and end up with a handful of egg watery, insipid, tasteless..... the 'great' minds that ruined tomatoes are doing the same for eggs. 😖

You have chickens growing tomatoes on that side o'border!
Or are they laying tomatoes instead of eggs?
