Pipex are a UK ISP (internet service provider) I have been with them many years as I felt that their service was very good. Unfortunately of recent years this is not the case as you will hear.

I have now been without my Pipex internet for 2 weeks and 10 hours. I rely heavily on the internet for many of my websites. I really cannot be without it for more than a few hours without it affecting my day to day activities. Continue Reading »

Welcome to Review Blog. here you will find many opinions and reviews. Most of these will come from myself and a few from friends and colleagues around the world. I thought the best thing to start this off would be to review myself!

Who am I? Well I am 26 years old and live in the sunny (ha ha) UK. I work full time in a job I do not like and for the last year, in my spare time, I run my own business on the web. This is yet to be successful but I have high hopes. I live on my own but about to move in with my pregnant girlfriend.
