Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

Sorted mate.

Having fish tonight, Iceland style. Combination of scampi and Harry Ramsden's fish goujons which I'll be having with garden peas, tartare sauce and some seeded brown bread and butter which I've just remembered I need to get out of the freezer. No chips.
Friday night mate and you have shed a lot of weight. No one would begrudge you a few chips with that.
 
Witchcraft mate?

Nothing to see here :oops:

Internet/laptop got bust by a leccy storm 8 days ago. Line got mended, for a day, then told it was damage at the exchange, then told today it was a fault in the house. 30mins after an engineer arranging to come up tomorrow to fix it, it mended itself. So, all human interaction to mend the internet failed. But it now works.

Witchcraft.

How many times in life does the mere presence of a repairman, or indeed the promise of one, make the broken fix itself lol

Life takes every opportunity to make you look like a tool.

I have done nothing mate. But for 7 days, the internet was dead. Sky/BT engineers have worked all week at it. On and off. And at 12.30 today I was called by a BT lad, who said its still knackered, and he will come up tomorrow.

By the time I got home, 30 minutes later, it was working. Will be interesting to see what he says tomorrow!

You must keep us updated on this Roydo.

Someone in the exchange has potentially removed some important plug to put the hoover on.

Could be sommet as daft as that. Was going to cancel the BT guy, now it seems fine, but there could be a wonky wire somewhere here that a cat has sat on. Either way, he will explain, hopefully. I have my own, bonkers, theory, but lets see.
 

I asked Nikki to have a word the other day. Not in a pleading way, just as a laugh. So hopefully, the BT guy will disabuse me of that tomorrow. (Not that I will mention it!).

If not, it will be the latest in a long line of inexplicable events that have happened since she left us.
Nah mate, he will not disabuse you of that, he will tell you it’s a mystery but at least it’s working now.

Class that.

Don’t forget to investigate any compo you’re due , we had no internet for 2 weeks after someone crashed into the big green box on the main road.
