Think those services are blocked by many service providers in Britain so it's good old amazon or similar
(good luck on the cycling BTW) :)

If you use the wonderful Plusnet, you can surf where you like without any annoying restrictions. If you're thinking of switching to them because of this, please do so through me and allow me to refer you. If you want to stick with your current ISP, there are other ways to view restricted content! ;)
As far as the bike trip's progressing, i've looked into my itinerary and it's looking rather rushed, so i'm now trying to get sufficient time off work to have the whole of February off next year, which will give me one month off before my retirement day on 1st March. If that all works out, i'm going to book an 8-10 week return trip to NZ and will look to do the USA/Canada leg later in the year, possibly as a RTW, for a further 8-10 weeks. One of the problems i've discovered with RTW tickets, which has caused this change of plan, is the big difference in baggage allowance on a RTW, compared to a standard Business Class return.

We did the scandanavian thing, well kind of.

A 110 Landrover, Pop up tent, Canoe, a ferry to Denmark, 3005 miles up through Sweden and Norway and 8 days later which also included a canoe race we returned home. Our next trip will be a lot lot slower and longer!
