Well actually, I did say that a little tongue in cheek ;)

Fact is, when you consider the density of population and the fact that everywhere is urban and built up, London has a lower crime rate than many major UK towns and cities.

In fact, I notice that the violent news stories always seem to come from 'posh' towns, usually in the Home Counties. Must be the boredom or something.

I like London, have lived here since the age of 3 months. Have been away but always return. In fact, as I'm getting older, I'm only just starting to realise how much I like it. Odd, that.

A very common misconception held about Cambridge.. and one I quickly discovered is complete BS!!

Nice one Shorty! Is it on the main Wilmslow road, or just off that?

Just off Wilmslow/Burton Road - Chatham Grove.

This could be somewhat worrying.

Here we have two uber-webmeisters within close proximity of each other.

If (when) they meet, and combine brains, the outcome could be cataclysmic :eek:

NTL have totally botched my move though :(

Even with two weeks notice, I am STILL chasing them for a confirmation of move date & time. Looks like the 10th of January now as they made a massive series of mistakes & false promises :mad:

BT were the same when we moved, 1 month to activate a phone line! Not a happy bunny!

On dialup till Monday but apart from that.. everything else is cool :D
 
Shorty, I am glad to see someone working for Caudwell communications, I am going to start working in Customer services department from 10th of Jan as well. Pizza places, best Pizza I would say is near BBC office, try them out, there are quiet a few nice places to live, driving schools, my wife passed her test first time without any mistakes, I will check the number out for driving instructor if you want me to.


Hope to see you at Caudwell communications, you can contact me through my email if you like.

Shorty,

Shorty, I don't have an office email yet. My shift is starting next week, this week we are still upstairs training with Mark.

I would be working in customer care from 5 till 9 pm, I am trying to get into Broadband team, but I guess there is a lot of politics involve, Ian (broadband team manager) was used to work with me in the past and he is trying to get me into his team, but so far invain. Lets see what happens.

Speak to you soon.

Regards,
Zaf
