      Get yourself a laptop with mobile internet access. Or valium.

        Small 3G laptop would be my preferred solution. If it's allowed...

          Internet access is heavily restricted here but am lucky enough to be on a less restricted bit of the network cos I'm a developer and I need access to lots of different websites for - ahem - technical queries. Could be worth trying this argument. Preferably with a straight face.

            Worth a try. After all, CUK does have a technical forum

                All estimates are increased by 15% in the event of no internet access.

                  Stick a usb 3g stick in your machine and configure *.contractoruk.com requests to through that.

                  Well, thats how I surf "banned" sites at client co anyway.
