UK Telecommunications

Incidentially this is post no 3,000 for Kiwiblog!

As 027 does not work in the UK, Telecom arranged a UK loan phone for me. I think it sums up how much price gouging happens in NZ, that it is *cheaper* for me to call people in NZ from my UK mobile phone, in the UK, than it is to call people in NZ from my NZ mobile phone when in NZ. Yes seriously.

One of the flats I am staying at tells me they have 8Gb wireless! My current abodes has a neighbour with wireless also
