Reconnection

Our internet connection crashed at two o’clock last Friday. Our provider said BT (British Telecommunications) was working on the line. It would probably come right at knock off time, they suggested.

Well, it didn’t.

So they raised a fault,

The git that disconnected us on Friday, must have remembered on Monday morning when he came back to work, for at exactly 8:09 this morning, he reconnected us again.

When I reported this to our provider, they laughed and said “Yes, that happens – more than you know!”

Well, we didn’t find it funny.

I hope they cancelled the fault request…..

Internet retrograde

No posts. No Internet.

Line fault.

Repair…

Maybe Monday,

Tuesday, or Wednesday….

British Telecoms only works on weekdays.

That’s what we’re told.

Till then,

Stay well!

I feel better now

At one time, I was very active on the Internet (well I still am). It gradually creeps up on you. Especially if you have to teach it to other people. I have an overload of accounts..

Some people don’t get much attention

What do you do when you feel you’ve not been appreciated? Well, you break free!

Remember the o2 cross person? Here’s more we might not know…about texting

A few days ago I promoted a video of a very cross person berating the mobile phone provider o2.  Link

I followed her channel hoping there might be more. Today I found this video in my inbox.

Simple pleasures, then and now

I’ve never been a fan of ventriloquists and their ‘dolls’. Not then, not now.

Meditation for today – maybe

This Furlong has always loved Alan Watts. I was astonished recently when the BBC broadcast a radio discussion and the people on the panel had never heard of Alan Watts! Which shows how superficial and ignorant the BBC cultural offerings are.

Facepalm Facebook – DELETE

These old Furlongs deactivated their Facebook Accounts. But we STILL get notifications constantly, even though we “unsubscribe”. I had two accounts – a personal one and one under another name for promoting vaping. And another for work when I taught hearing impaired computer students how to set up a Facebook account. I don’t know whether that one is still floating around on the ethers….

Don’t blog about yourself -evidently

I read a blog about blogging. It contained tips for bloggers. I think there were several ‘rules’. I cant remember them actually and I have no link for those who want to know them: there are many, many blogs ‘out there’ on how to be a good blogger.

Old fool

We have ad blockers on our computer browsers, so, yesterday, when a three question Chrome opinion survey came up suddenly on my computer, I took it.
