I still glance at the forum now and again, I can't say I'm at all as active on here as I once was though. I still see quite a few faces from the forums glory days who are always a pleasure to see.
If you are in S6 then Pine Media are worth a look at, they offer both Fibre and Air Fibre packages ranging from 20 to 100 meg. No phone line required and they are very reasonable on price.
