RE: UKHA2003 Video - DVD version - downloadable ?

That's why I didn't want to upload - especially as my Satellite connection
only gives me about 20Kbps rather than the 120Kbps BT quote!

I think you're right there Gerard but it's worse. I set an upload going
onan  256K upload and am getting a measly 100Kbps. It has taken 1 hour
and 20 mins to upload 50MB so far. You may be in for a long wait!
