Hi to everybody...hmmm....have just sat and watched a film called Saigon with Willem Dafoe, Gregory Hines and Fred Ward made in 1968 and with an alternative title of Off Limits...it was very good...and took my mind off the damned telephone for a couple of hours and decided to have a Chinese takeaway at 8.30, and it arrived just before the film started at 9 so that was well timed...suddenly felt really peckish...and hadn't had a proper evening meal since last Monday so thought I should eat one today...usually do with hubby but he's not here tonight so didn't bother cooking...
Thanks for all the suggestions for alternatives to Virgin, but clearly I haven't got one...I just don't know now how many more time this is going to happen...it could happen every time the damned engineer goes near the box for all I know and that more than frustrating...its also infuriating...I'd no idea how easy it was for our line to just be severed by mistake...it's ridiculous...well, any of our lines for that matter...
Oh, well...that's it for now...I hope you have had a good evening, have a restful night, sweet dreams and big hugs to one and all and I hope Kelly is enjoying her first evening here in Britain...a special hug to her as well...

Well, that was yesterday later in the day
Today, I'm okay because hubby's back...it's seething on my own I didn't like as he was in London all day...BT unfortunately, is not OK otherwise wouldn't have moved...as I said...no choice but to go with Virgin...and that's what I object to...no choice when told that's what makes our Western system so great...we have choice...big joke really if we weren't prepared to kill people elsewhere to export our way of life....big hugs...XXX

We are in the same boat as you in northern Alberta. There is only one phone service!! I don't like the monopoly and the huge rates they charge. Competition is a good thing. As least we can get different long distance service providers now and so that price has gone down dramatically.
Sweet dreams my lady!! I love your blue background and sparkling flowers. Blue and pink are my favorite colors!! -

You can get broadband without BT land line...still if you dont like them.....but next year a device is being launched that will give people free calls from home anywhere in the world via your mobile ..it will be the death of land lines...you mark my words..big hug

Yes, I told somebody here about that device and will believe it when I see it..oooh, so cynical now aren't I....just don't believe anything I'm told to do with technological advances because invariably they don't damned work...or only in certain areas, and I'm absolutely sure to be outside of them...BLOL...and I hate mobiles so really would rather not have anything to do with those perishing extensions to the modern human lug'ole...
Big hugs...and this device is actually a broadband connection that going to cover the entire country apparently and do away with the necessity of using land lines and any machine can connect to it...so not just limited to mobiles so I believe.... -

I love DeFoe in Platoon. Great character played by a great actor

Don't normally like him, but I agree he was also good in Platoon...his face doesn't appeal that much to me...oooh, aren't I shallow
Actually, he always looks as if he could take a large bite out of you HLOL...

Glad to see you're feeling a little calmer today jen! i have not heard great things about Virgin but what is the alternative? Bt is ok but very expensive and we don't get the speed we were promised plus we have huge phone bills if not careful -it will settle down I'm sure -hope you had a good day today x hugs x
