| Blue sky over the water |
Unfortunately, we no longer have the
clear blue sky that we had for the last few days. It really was
lovely and well worth going out and enjoying while it lasted. Now we
have a little cloud cover and a very, very light breeze blowing at
around four or five knots so not worth getting worked up about.
And because it's a Monday all the
children are off to school and all the working adults are doing their
bit to support society, or more likely, to support themselves and
their family. This means that I have no problem getting connected to
the internet – at the moment!!!
There are times when things are a
little different though. First thing in the morning, between six and
eight, every day of the working week, it can be almost impossible to
go on the net. Every day of the working week, from four o'clock in
the afternoon until perhaps six o'clock in the evening it is more use
washing the windows because again, you won't get onto the internet then either.
| All these promises that they make!!! |
There is, of course, a reason for these
problems. In effect we live, here in Hillswick, Northmavine in
Shetland, at the end of the line and all the people further down the
line suffer this problem less and less as they get to the beginning
of the line.
Now I don't know about you but this
annoys me. I pay for this service just like everyone else but I don't
get the same service as those further down the road and I do not get
any discount for that.
I do know that they can install what
they call a “Cabinet”, please don't ask me what it is because I
don't know. What I do know is that it is the solution to the problem
we get in this area, as told to me by BT.
Please, please, make a real nuisance of
yourselves. Moan and groan incessantly at British Telecom. If we
don't do that then things won't improve.
The price won't go down either, it will
only go up.
