    Default Why a new sky card?

    Too many problems with the current ones?
    An upgrade for more services?
    A Cr*ck was about to happen?

    thought i would start a thread to see what comments pop up!

    All the people who have sky abroad will be chuffed!, no footy in a lot of places this summer holiday methinks!

    To sart some rumours and gossip.
    There are 3 types of people in the world - those who make things happen, those who watch things happen; and those who wondered what happened.

    its a pity you cant clone the cards and use cloned cards in other boxes in your house that arent connected to a phone line, still i dont have sky so even if you could i couldnt lol

    must say though when i saw the ad yesterday at me mam's the first thing i thought was that a crack was either out there or about to be, suppose you always live in hope after the old ondigy days lol
