I did execute mirrorselect and this is what it picked:

Manually downloading will fix this problem for me, but how can we fix this problem for the next guy ?
I found the best way to use mirrorselect was 'mirrorselect -i' then pick likely mirrors from the menu. In the UK, I had best results with German, Belgian and Swiss mirrors (avoiding the IPv6 ones) until my own ISP (BlueYonder) became a mirror - now I use BY and get 480K/sec downloads. :)
Be lucky,
Neil.
