Our next-door neighbours, after years of complaining to B.T. about their lousy Broadband signal, have finally had a rooftop dish erected by another provider and it's transformed their service; the aerial is on the roof of the local hospital
I don't know who they're with now, but I'm going to ask... as well as how much... because since they jumped ship our B.T. signal has plummeted. I can't help thinking that the service out here has now been downgraded in some way.

Watching Kelly's Hero's for the fourth (4th) time ... sure is good to see that old German tank commander make the right decision and blow the bank doors out

Last Tuesday my router died and it took up till yesterday to send a replacement and re-establish my connection. I complained vociferously this morning and they have given me a months free service on my existing package (broadband, phone 'free calls 24/7', tv 'full package sports and movies') and upgraded me to 200Mbps. Not often I get this sort of positivity so I'm making the most of it

Visited the ENT clinic and had a camera shoved up my nose! Good job it was not the other end, I hear those camera's are bigger and you come away smelling of pepper mints.
Over time tomorrow for me, ching ching...extra money in the bank for a quick visit before going on bills.

Broadband problems have returned so more compensation should eventually be forthcoming.

another damn gizmo
Recuperating from yesterday's sail on the Bay. A little cold, overcast, and brisk to say the least...temps in the 50's! We were the only sailboat out there. Steady 10-15 knots winds from the east and the tide allowed use of the auto-tiller and the longest outing of the year, straight downwind toward the westerly approaches of greater San Pablo Bay, a portion of San Francisco Bay. Shipping and sea lions passed very close. The captain, a long ham radio buff, broke out his new toy: KX2 ELECRAFT HAM RADIO and new 10' antenna on e stern rail. The static on my hearing aids was brutal !!! At 3 pm, winds dropping and tacking close-reached futile against the easterly breeze, we furled sails and motored all the way back east to the Marina ahead of the sunset; a two-hour trip with the inbound tide. The new paint job on the hull two weeks ago was worth it! -absolutely no water in the bilges! <The captain had his fun until I, putting up with the horrific static in my Widex hearing-aids for 30 odd minutes, suggested 'We come out here to escape the world's racket.....!". He relented, and the radio off and peace restored: I then served lunch!
