A Dialup or a DSL Lite would be your cheapest bet, however, I have no clue as to the English companies, so I'm no help other than suggesting that.

There are local/regional internet service providers around here and they always offer the lowest prices, so I would look for something like that.

yep, start carrying the laptop around the flat and seeing if you can find a spot to connect to wireless.

if you can't get wireless, then you could get a cheap broadband connection, the slowest broadband speed your ISP offers, and "flash" it to get the fastest speed available. That way, you're paying not that much for an excellent speed.

or if there's a coffee shop or bar nearby with Wifi then just go there a lot. Even my local Subway Sandwich has Wifi.

That could work, but it depends on whether or not they're sheep.
