This...


An hour long telephone call to TalkTalk and some mucking about by them at their end...

Thereafter, a 15 minute wait then switch the router off and on again...

Guess what...

Hmmm...

Out and into town for a stupidly arranged pointless meeting...

My mood is so affected by loss of access to the internet...

I am, it seems, an internet junkie...

And cold turkey is unpleasant...

Post meet, a drive out to the hospital for a visit with my old mum...


She's always on at me for being so fat...

She's just worried that, like sister Pam, I will die before her...

Oh well...

She's been told another week of intravenous antibiotics is required, with oral antibiotics post that...

She's bored out her brains in that hospital...

To Sainsbury on the way home, more tortellini, noting that their's is twice the price than Tesco, albeit with slightly more in the pack...

Home and another over an hour long call with TalkTalk...

Further mucking about at their end...

Still no access and the promise of a call back from a "manager" by 5pm...

Guess what...

Meanwhile a "specialist" will be looking at matters and it's hoped the situation will be resolved within three days...

Finished off the "X-Files" - it left us with a bit of a cliffhanger and, it seems, there will be a further 10 episodes in 2018...

I am not entirely holding my breath...

In the evening, took a philosophical view re lack of internet and recorded this week's podcast, not knowing if I'd be able to upload...

To bed around midnight...

Highlight of the Day : Podcasting...
