In a word.

arse.

You could share my connection if we were to set up a yogurt pot and bits of
string.

Or get a very long ethernet cable and run it from your flat it to north
london and ask NTL to plug it in there for you.

I can think up loads of other pointless suggestions, but here's a more
serious one:

If you want to a bit more info about the blue yonder service but not
actually from blue yonder themselves, then try the users group:
http://www.by-users.co.uk
Stick a post on there and see if anyone else has BY it near you.
