It might as well rain until September ...

... and probably will.




A week that started badly and got progressively worse; work impossible, technology issues, mental meltdown, market computer bloke doesn't sell mac-compatible keyboards, too many people in the quick-trim hairdresser's booth, called round to see someone who wasn't in, potential sausage disaster en train BUT red flahs can make a lot of difference :)

Irritating Service Provider





A whole week of arguing with ISP to try to get a MAC reference. 


"We are unable to generate it because of the kind of contract you have"


"Eh?"


"You have MPF"


"Eh?"


"Metallic Path Facility; a MAC number cannot be generated"


So because the ISP has stuck me with MPF (Whatever TF that is and is a matter I was given no choice about), I am unable to change providers with a simple MAC ref but would have to cancel the existing broadband and start from scratch with a new provider (which would take about 3 weeks apparently).


A truly fiendish stitch-up.  Not a Happy Bunny.

Blind Possessed Choirboys

Laughing is, in my opinion, one of the top three or four sensations available to human beings.  This makes me laugh like a drain even after many viewings.
