    Average bill is £250 per billing period.

    I average about 280 but my little sis lives with me & uses the internet to talk to all her buddies in the states - tho not too much recently smile.gif

    In fact, if it weren't for the fact that (a) i have a girlfriend, (b) i _do_ actually go to the pub from time to time, (c) i watch no tv at all, and (d) I can make fun of her watching tv shows like Moesha (she has a masters degree & is not a teenager) I would have absolutely no defense against the dreaded words 'Mark, you are _such_ a geek'

    I also remember a 500+ phone bill last summer when she would spend all day on the net during working hours (instead of studying - damn students). She sent me an email complaining i hadn't given her 100 quid i owed her & i received it as i was staring down in disbelief at the phone bill ... she sure got an ear-full that day!

    And hey - why don't you telecom guys make yourselves useful & instead of flaming each other sort out some serious discounts for all of us on the cloud boards!!!! smile.gif

    Don't even talk about it!

    I feel like I'm working for Telecom.... instead of just donating to their huge staff payouts..
