Messages still running at 6-12 hours behind posting times. Any other Plusnet
customers getting their messages on time? Newsgroups are so slooooow, makes
dial up on FreeUK look like lightening.

They've been talking about getting this sorted out for weeks now. I hope I
can be as slow and patchy with my direct debit payment?

No, it's not even connecting properly here today. However, it was only a
test as I normally use new.individual.net anyway.

Wotcha mate,

Good to hear from you again. I'm now up in Durham, and working in 'The
Toon'. It's much better up here for sure.

TTFN

Oh right, most of the people I know or knew who lived in the Beds / Herts
area seem to have either moved or are working away, there must be something
in the water...

How are you coping with the language ?! :~)

Glad to hear things are going well.

Ah, Durham. A very nice part of the world, and I've had an enjoyable 3
years here. But it's somebody else's turn for the fun!

Much nicer place than darn sarf.

LOL, yes, although I sometimes find it more the other way around :-)
