I also use a netbook and dongle when hanging around between jobs.

I'm either doing that, or sleeping, or getting the car washed, or in the car wash cafe having a coffee or something.

When I was in Newport instead of getting out of my cab for a general gab, I studied for the Cardiff Knowledge and it paid off.

Many younger drivers could study for "The London Knowledge" and really sort their futures out, whilst still earning.

Think I pay about £20 a month but thats for quite heavy usage.

Assuming you can watch sky news online then yes. The connection is unrelireable at times but usually OK for live TV
