Website Woe

Woah, apparently I failed to renew my website hosting whatsite. I usually get an email about it but apparently that hasn't happened this time. Does this mean I've lost everything on the site? Because, well, that would be a real bugger as I have NO COPIES of anything :-(
Also, this presumably means I can switch from the dreadful HostOnce to something better. Who has a great web host that would like to recommend. I vaguely remember wanting to switch to Karen's but it's a weekend and I think she's asleep and can't help me...

Broadband/Phone HELP!

Yo, Brits. Anyone got a particularly good broadband/phone bundle that you use? I'm inclined towards BT but since I've just spent the last half hour literally being transferred from department to department, I've got a wee bit testy and given up for the time being. I want, ideally, free wireless router and unlimited download capacity and speeds of up to 8MB. I would appreciate any help.

Poll mania and fan fiction habits of the unemployed and debt-ridden

mood: awake
I am actually vaguely sorry for all the polls I have been inflicting upon you poor sods these last few weeks. This one is less ludicrous than the others. To explain, I have a number of unfinished fics in various fandoms labelled 'What the hell' and 'Why not' - I have no intention of finishing them but keep them on the premise, I always think, that they might one day come in use. They rarely do.
I am taking this poll
Yes
45(100.0%)
On my harddrive, I have X number of unfinished fics
1 - 3
14(31.1%)
4 - 10
12(26.7%)
11 - 20
11(24.4%)
21 +
5(11.1%)
Too many to count
3(6.7%)
I fully expect to finish all my as of yet unfinished fics...
Yes, a fic never stays 'unfinished' for long. I always complete it.
0(0.0%)
Yes, I finish, even if it takes months and months.
4(8.9%)
No, sometimes fics get started and just never finished. Sadness :(
31(68.9%)
No. Often I know I start something with no intention of finishing. For me, it's all about the immediate enjoyment of writing.
10(22.2%)
If 'no' to above question - why not? What causes the death of your unfinished fics?
Not enough time!
23(20.5%)
Can no longer see where the fic is going
23(20.5%)
Changed fandoms

How long do you leave the unfinished fics on your harddrive for, then?
A couple of weeks
0(0.0%)
A month or two
1(2.2%)
Months and months!
4(8.9%)
I never delete them. I open them and re-read and hope that one day I'll finish them.
38(84.4%)
Post them in WIP amnesties and say goodbye to the suckers, wooo!
0(0.0%)
I don't have to delete them because I ALWAYS FINISH THEM!
