Internet! (at home)

Finally we have internet at home! We’re using Virgin.net — mainly because it was cheap(ish), and because they didn’t have a 12-month contract. Service seems okay so far; not getting the full 8mbit (nothing like it, more like 1 - 1.5mbit), but it is peak time and the speed is supposed to adjust.

But it sure is handy having the internet at home; so much stuff to read! (And people to talk to; the Australia-UK timezone difference is fairly inconvenient if you don’t have internet at home.)
