Re: How can you watch UK TV on your computer for Free in Australia?

no you have to download a torrent player like utorrent
then you can go into piratenet and search for the programme you want, which will download into utorrent and from there you can watch it.

Re: Melbourne to Geelong

You could cycle it if you were so inclined. It would take you all day but it's not that far. Personally I tend to take the train and a good book. The scenery along the way is nothing to brag about.
