Thanks guys!

Hi Candylea
Traditionally, RIM's don't incorporate support for ADSL. They rely on a fibre feed from the exchange, and their task is essentially to split that out into a bunch of…

Hi Luke,

Congratulations Shon.

From what I can gather, settlement is more of a formality - if your builder knows the date that it's due to happen, then there shouldn't be any reason…
