    How fast is your broadband?

    Paying for 30 mbit.. Got 10/5 on http://www.broadbandspeedchecker.co.uk/ 17/14 on a "local" swedish test.. Not that it matters much, but what other businesses other than ISP's could deliver half of what the customer is paying for, and get away with it..

    Football Hooligans still alive in the twenty first century !

    Not specific to england... here we have one "firm" for the hockey-team and one for the football-team. But I've never really heard of random violence like this. They usually settle it with other so-called fans. Sometimes even before youth-games :roll: Ofc they are inspired by brits.. Every...
