As some of you may know ive been having a bit of a struggle on the broadband front, being in a rural area and all. So my brother and i resorted to registering people from the phone book, we got our registration barometer up to 290 (trigger 400) when we ran out of names. So my brother got out the phonebook again and got another 20 or so names to add, we checked the current registrations figure before we added the new names to see how close we were getting....

Only for the barometer to be gone and in its place is a pop-up that says "good news - your exhange will be broadband enabled before the 4th of august 2004". Cue the celebratory dancing and a trip to adslguide.org to see if they could shed some light on what just happened.

Apparently our exchange is part of a Scottish Lowlands Partnership, i dont know any more details than that, but to be honest i dont really care, im getting broadband and thats all that matters.

If there are people out there who still havent met their trigger, dont despair. There is always hope. :)
