Nothing but that is not honesty, it's just bloody mindedness.

Yes that's right, and I'll tell you something. If more people exhibited a
bit of bloodymindedness now and then we'd have less outrageous incursions
into our liberty in this country.

Bloodymindedness is good. Rolling on your back like a spaniel and saying "Oh
sorry sir, please forgive me sir, I'll not do it again sir!" is bad. It's
that sort of spineless behaviour that lets government (in all its forms) and
business (in all its forms) get away with their routine crapping on Joe
Public. Why do we just stand there and take the **** that's thrown at us in
this country? Go on, I dare you! Next time some little ****er decides to
spoil your day just so he can get off on it, or next time you're treated
like a moron by the doctor's receptionist, or next time the supermarket
closes the till that you've queued ten minutes for* then think BLOODYMINDED!
Give then hell!

*This happened to me twice (two tills one after the other) so I wrote my
name and address on a piece of paper, left it on the till, and set off with
my unpaidfor shopping. I also made a short speech to the rest of the queue
encouraging them to do likewise. They tried bullying and shouting and
threats but very quickly opened a till for me. The manager then said I was
'banned'! Fabulous!

The Grundig Freesat box has had a software download to allow the viewing
of non-Freesat channels. However, you have to manually add channels by
keying in the multiplex details. Oh dear. Can't see Joe Public liking
that.

Hmm....,


And still little or nothing about the Grundig box... lol.

I'll report here as soon as I find out. Mind you, next month's Wotsat will
have a big chunk of info about all this, apparently.

Well if I'm honest I don't care.

You will when you ISP account stops working...

You silly, pathetic, little man.

Would you BOTH please grow up?

While I would say that the £75 Sky-deal (from Argos etc.) which includes
STB, installation and 4 months of 4-Mix Sky TV is unbeatable!

Yes but he wants to do the install, not hand it to Sky.
Bill

A couple of years ago after I'd installed a region 2 and a quad LNB to a
couple of used SKY STBs, i took out a contract with Sky (god help me)

The installer was quite happy to connect the new STBs to my existing dish,
saving him the job of nailing up a region 1, and laying cable, etc

He chucked in a reel of RG6 as thanks

So do your own proper install with a used STB and then buy the £75 Sky deal

Yes, it's known as Meldrew's Syndrome.

Bill

PS yes I know syndromes are names after doctors, not patients.

Sky installers don't use RG6. Never have.

But all you are doing is showing up you ignorance, the fact that you
admit you don't know how NNTP servers work is one thing but being a
retarded troll when someone tries to educate you is another.

No one has said that they have never made a mistake or that they
are Mr Perfect, but we do know when to either keep quite or say
"Sorry", and defiantly when not to say something like "I don't
care".

Well if I'm honest I don't care.

You will when you ISP account stops working...

You sir are clueless and a dickhead.
