Celt's Journal: Mmmm..ranting

Well I'm working yet another weekend shift at work this week but thankfully I have a few days off in a week or two, Back in May I moved in with my girlfriend and things are going fine (I did'ent think she'd allow my server to be left on 24/7 ;) ) and a dsl router setup in the sitting room.

Got myself a 1024K/256K DSL line back in July, my very own DSL line FINALLY! Its far from cheap though as it costs 110 (euro) a month just for the DSL and that doesn't cover the 24 (euro) line rental I have to pay Eircom! (how I hate the company)

Since I have my own net access I have noticed a few things, I'm posting on /. more and various sites, I watch less tv as I have other things to do but funnily enough I watch RTÉ NEWS more then ever before (www.rte.ie/news/) as I can watch it streaming off of the net, although in saying that I watch it I still don't think its fair for me to pay 152 (euro) for a tv license just to own a tv that I barely even watch.
If I wasn't living with the girlfriend I'd properly sell my tv and get a projector just to piss off the tv license man.

argghh now I'm just ranting at this stage, anyway work in the morning so I'm off to bed early tonight....

on a side note why does /. not dislay the euro sign?
