40 quid for virgins m+, or some shite, package. Need to do spend half an hour on the phone whenever they bump the prices to keep it down every 6 months though.
Got a login for my mate's sky, so put that through the xbox. He's got the full whack

Does the phoning them to get the price down thing actually work? Will try it just to save the hassle.

Aye it defo does but you basically need to take it right to the end with threatening to leave. What package are you on as sounds similar to mine and I'm about 50 a month, spoke to some others and they're on the same package as me for 30 a month. It's a racket.
Aye. It only works if they've altered the terms of your contract and you're in a position to walk away. Otherwise you're locked in and the best you can hope for is a few quid.
You'll get some Indian fella when you first call, tell him you want to speak to the retention dept. He'll probably put you through to his boss, repeat step one. You'll then get some guy in Wales or something, be very nice to him and say you've seen this deal with bt or that deal with sky and what can you do? You'll easy get ten/fifteen quid a month off. Just checked, I pay 42 on a supposed 59 package.

I've been meaning to threaten to bin sky for months to see if I can get money off, I'm paying about 100 for the full package with broadband not including BT :

Washing machine is fucked so I'm using a mates the now, went and got my stuff earlier to bring it back and put in the dryer, the dryer just finished so I've went to go and empty it and fold the stuff only to discover I've forgot to actually put the stuff in the dryer
 That's a prime example of why men should never be left in charge of wummins jobs.

Got bit by a wee white backed spider this afternoon; well, I think it was the wee bugger what did it. Was like being pricked by a white hot needle (I'd have thought) ... absolutely agony, and stayed that way for a good minute.
How can a wee thing hurt you so much.

Put it on a trowel and trapped it under a plastic vessel so I can get a better look at it and try and identify it. So far haven't had any luck on internet. Small thing. Will take another look and report back. Put it this way if I see any more of them they're getting wasted on the spot.
