Comcast probably. Get a bit of footy on occasionally.

Good luck with the pool cleaning business or vacation rentals.

"Good luck with the pool cleaning business or vacation rentals."

Huh ?

Sorry, its just that virtually all brits who are moving to Orlando have been wowed by the bright lights and sunny smiles they were met with during a holoiday there and they really just absolutely have to live there as its simply the best place on earth. And the only way they can is to buy into a pool cleaning or vacation rentals business. I take it you are not in this particular fraternity then.

Costs somehting like $299 a year :eek: , but we were able to negotiate a discount...

300 a year isnt bad, i pay £360 a year for sky, will look that up. Does it give you live saturaday matches from foreign tv ?

See if you can get a cable package that includes Fox Soccer Channel. It comes as part of the basic package in this area.

And this website is useful:

That's $300 a year on top of your Directv subscription (any where from $41.99 to £93.99 a month). A bit pointless when you 3-5 live games a week on Fox Soccer, plus a few games on pay per view for $20 each if you get really desparate.

The Geek Squad - mmm that's a nice Beetle.

Re: moving to fl. need help with cable and soccer
 

wow, tought crowd.

Re: moving to fl. need help with cable and soccer
 

The service you were referring to - visiting people's homes to fix PCs - is called 'The Geek Squad' and they drive VW Beetles; although they probably aren't the only ones.

Another option is to go to the Cricketers Arms on I-Drive and watch the match live with a bacon butty or sausage sarnie, a pint of beer & 150-250 footy fans, regulars & tourists. Helps me with my Footy withdrawls !! generally $10 per game
