PE your busto pride material doesnt seem to work very well itt and is to be honest pretty boring. maybe you should try some of those bits on the thai visa crowd instead? they might be more receptive to that niche.
you used to produce a comedy gem or two itt every know and then, nowadays not so much. time for a theme change?

Looking at going to Phuket in January with a few mates for 2-4 weeks, want to just chill out, get tattooed and have a good time.

Looking for any tips on places to stay that are cheap, just pretty much any help would be great, how to minimise costs and such.

In relation to the tattooist, he is a mate of a mate from back home in Aus and they are completely certified. So I won't be getting the aids.

i wouldn't come to phuket for 2-4 weeks if you want to save money or live cheaply. esp in january which is one of the busiest months tourism wise.

it just takes a while to learn where the best, less inflated items/services are

I meant to say that in my original post. Without fail, every night at midnight my torrents jump right back to 1.4-1.5 MB/second. The problem is, I'm downloading 720p blu ray rips at around 6-8 GB a pop to put on my tv through HDMI ( I guess I should just start watching lower quality rips...

). I wonder what the limit is. It cant be higher than 10 GB per day b/c I get to around half that maybe on a given day before it slows to crap.

I just got 3BB installed like 3 weeks ago, though, and it was at the 9mbit package...so I wouldn't be at 12mbit now without paying for an upgrade, correct?

Thanks for your reply!

We had the premier line before, speed seemed to be capped at 6-700kbps but it never dropped below that no matter how much was downloaded each day/month.

I had 3bb premier and never downloaded more than 600 KBPS, usually around 100 KBPS, and it never disconnected once for over a year. I downgraded to the 9 MBPS package, and I am downloading at 30-120 KBPS now, but it has disconnected a couple of times in the last few months. Still really happy with it overall.

yeah so premier = 2700b/month, 600-700kb/s 24/7

standard line = 970b/month, 1.4mb/s for most of the day unless you download 24/7

overall i'm liking the standard line

yeah, as long as you don't go with both (like we had). disconnects happened on both lines at the same time so it wasn't really a very good backup line
