Re: Isle of Dogs.
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk has the story.
Basically the network there is crap and ntl don't want to spend the money overbuilding it and getting it ready for the analogue switch off so it's being switched off.

I dont know anything about that area, but if its an old network requiring lots of work/money to bring up to scratch it could be true as ntl are just trying to spend as little as possible on the plant side of things.
ntl have shut down a number of networks, including one fairly modern 860MHz system.

Is anyone else getting annoyed by this mixture of "black" speak/text speak recently?

Yes, but the single word "waz" is hardly enough to start ranting about, especially with the usual standards of spelling and grammar on internet forums.
