For those who didn't know, Sutton Benger and other villages around are scheduled to get fibre broadband late this year (2013) according to this map. This is part of a scheme funded by Wiltshire Council. Latest news on this can be found here and at the bottom of this page you can register to get informed when the update page changes. According to the update page Royal Wootton Basset will be able to order fibre spring 2014 so it looks like there has been some slippage from the end 2013 date on the map. Still better late than never.

A visit to Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter (parking is 70p/hr) would get over £12/g at today's (20/2/2013) prices.
We're all aware, painfully, how much the cost heating oil has increased but are we all aware that it is now more than electric. Current price is near 60p/l (ex VAT) where as cheapest E7 night time is 5.2p. Heating oil is 10.35 kWhr/l which means you need a condensing boiler (93% efficiency) and oil at 50p/l to beat that.
