    BT Infinity & other fibre broadband in Stafford.

    Well, we've had BT Infinity for around a month now, and it is lightyears faster than my old Sky connection.

    Do you think men and women are equal?

    BT Infinity & other fibre broadband in Stafford.

    As far as I know, as of yet, no other service prefer has access to BT Fibre. Sky are in negotiations, but nothing firm yet. I suspect it will come down to Ofcom intervention.

    Assault in Couture New Years Day

    101 is the new, soon to be National, non-emergency number for Police. It will automatically direct you to your local force... Apparently. Flat rate number that's cheaper from mobiles than the usual 084 numbers
