    Well worth some phone calls!!

    Although, (and personally) I hate Talk Talk with a vengence and went back to BT. The extra £2 a month more than made up for the rubbish service and unhelpful people at Talk Talk - but lots of people are successful with them too!
  • I got a weird thign with my Insurance.

    Ir runs out tomorrow. at Midnight. If I renew immediatlet , it is £345. I f I wiat to renew until 2nd jan its £305. Something to do with new rates. Luckily , I have a company van to get to and from work , so tomorrow , will put car in the garage and lock it away for 4 days.
