Man Up Geoff! says the photo-bombing carp
So, my ADSL went kaput last Monday night sometime. ISP checked all they could, have sent replacement modem (which still hasn’t arrived) not that it’s likely to do any good as the line tech who came this afternoon discovered that the line appears to have been disconnected at the Civic exchange. A line trace from the exchange end returns a line length of zero meters!
That’s fine, I guess, they just need to reconnect it right? You’d think so. But then I receive an SMS from my ISP late this arvo saying my fault requires ‘further investigation’ and is expected to be rectified no later than 7pm 15th March! Tha Fuck? 15th of bloody March!
Grumbles bloody mumbles.
That’s right Geoff just MTFU… it’s likely a healthy thing really.
So now I’m trying to post to my blog via my phone. It’s a bit slower!
I can feel and understand your pain, but still can’t help to giggle about your mumblings 🙂 It will all be good again. Hold on and take deep breaths. Or something like that.
I’m continuing on my deep breath regime but it just makes me seem to ‘puff’ more 🙂
I’m sure it’ll all work out but this bit is annoying!
OH what fun. Hope they actually get it going sooner than expected.
Hiss and spit. I do love the photo bomber though. Megathanks. And fingers crossed it is fixed sooner (not later) than expected.
Let’s hope so!
11 days (but who’s counting?) and no prospect before next Friday at the earliest. Not very happy about it.
oh no, oh no, oh no. I think some serious bitching is absolutely necessary. how can you live like this??? sending good vibes xxxo
It’s driving me flipping nuts!
Ps thanks for good vibes 🙂
that carp has some nerve!
Oi, oi, oi the ups and downs of modern technology sure can be trying at times!!! As can all the acronym – ADSL, SMS , ISP – if one is not familiar with the terminaology, ITNC??? ( No criticism of you but just as a common note, in general of where we are going with our shortening of phrases, places and so on!!)
i like the pic. the reflection and the partly strange perspective because of the fish being under water. nice!
Hehe … I walked past that same pond the other day and asked that fish whether they knew of their internet fame? They weren’t particularly forthcoming, preferring cool water and the sound of bubbles 🙂
