Local Cable..?

[old.DrFaust]

Can anyone gimmie a hand?

I'm looking for a cable company in Aberdeen as NTL dont seem to supply it in my area and i would prefer Cable to ADSL at the moment.

Cheers!

 

[Embattle]

Either NTL/Telewest tend to be the biggest two and if you can't get either then you can't get cable

 

[old.DrFaust]

bloddy hell - that was quick!!

I only posted it about a minute ago!

You dont happen to live in Aberdeen do you? As some local insight would be nice instead of a generalisation

There are sometimes a local unheard of nationally, company that supply it in local areas.

Well its pretty easy if u cannot get cable tv in your area then u cannot get cable internet.


If you dont know of anyone in your area with cable and do not know of a company there i would say u cant get it.

This is your local cable company. I don't know if they provide cable modems, as they are probably a small company - give them a call and find out.

Thank you!

Nicer than the MPUK forums...

Isnt the local ISP called 'Sheepnet' or something?

 

[Embattle]

No theres two...the first is sheep the second is shagger

 

[Will]

What do you call 2 sheep chained to a lamppost?

Aberdeen Leisure Centre



sorry Aberdonians, but you must be used to this by now

 

[old.DrFaust]

Hmm..

Sorry lads, cant help you there. I dont live there!

 

[Mr_Horus]

Heh yus. Scotland looks down upon Aberdeen, England looks down upon Scotland, and the rest of the world looks down upon England.

Its great being near the bottom.

 

[Will]

Nah, Scot's look down on England. When we can't find an Englishman, an Aberdonian will do.

 

[Mr_Horus]

Yeah that too. But generally there are plenty of Englishmen. And if we cant find an Englishman or an Aberdonian, we can always look down upon Fifers

 

[Will]

Or Dundonians.

 

[Mr_Horus]

Or poor sods on the shetland islands. They cant reply cos they dont have phonelines up there, let alone broadband

Do they have running water yet?

 

[Mr_Horus]

Dunno. Ask Iolaire.

 

[old.DrFaust]

Well, this guy that i'm trying to find cable for used to live in London but the job made him move to Aberdeen. He says it's nice

He hasn't seen many sheep.. Not been to Wales recently.. (ooh yey! Now lets have an English -Vs- Welsh post. )

 

[Will]

On Shetland they do have running water.

But broadband - I can't really see it ever happening.

[Mr_Horus]

England is just a nation of imperialistic bastards who opress everyone else

 

[Will]

And chicks dig a Scottish accent.

 

[Mr_Horus]

Indeed they do.

The monitors you are all reading these posts on - based on the invention of John Logie Baird (Scottish). The phone line your internet connection uses, invented by Alexander Graham Bell (Scottish).

I don't use a phone line

bigt

 

[Will]

It's all based on telephone technology, except maybe cable modems, which are based on the technology of an American couple called Bob and Betsy Magnesson.

I am the font of all knowledge, and I'm Scottish.
