Stream Toulon v Bath from anywhere
Don’t let a lack of rugby ruin an otherwise perfect pre-Christmas weekend away from home. You’ve probably noticed that geo-blocking restrictions can prevent you from watching your usual TV services while you’re abroad, but that doesn’t have to be the case if you take a handy piece of software called a VPN (or Virtual Private Network) with you.
