I'm glad to see lack of intranetz has not negatively affected your prose skills, Shambles. In fact it seems to have doubled your powers
Or do I detect a whiff of a vapour in the air?
). Other than that, precious little on the druggy front to report. Other than Monday morning being rather enjoyable. Aside from the router breaking. Did I mention me router broke? 8)

is and the power it represents. So I will reply with this

Confimed. tl[dNOTrA'ternoon, all
What a shitey week that was. Bleedin' router died last Monday so phoned the intrawebz folk and said "Me bleedin' router died" and they said "No it didn't" and I said "Bet it did" and they said "Looks fine from here" and I said "You should see it from here then seeing as you're in some call centre elsewhere than here" and they said "Can you fix it yourself? and I said "No" and they said "Well, we could send out an engineer but if it turns out that you could've fixed it yourself we'll have to charge you £150" and I said "Fuck off" and they said "No, really we will" and I said "That's a bit shit" and they said "Policy innit" and I said "Apparently so but I would quite like me intranetz to work seeing as I'm paying for access I don't have due to me router breaking" and they said "If you insist. We'll try to get somebody there by the end of the week - you gonna be in?".
*time passes*
*more time passes*
*boring time-based, lacking in intranetz interlude passes... very, very slowly*
Engineer arrives and says "You're router's broken" and I said "I know" and he said "That's odd" and I said "I know" and he said "Shouldn't be broken" and I said "I know" and he said "We don't provide replacement routers so I'll file a report and your intranetz provider should send out a replacement" and I said "Woot. When" and he said "Dunno".
*time passes*
*more time passes*
*boring time-based, lacking in intranetz interlude passes... very, very slowly*
Intranetz provider finally calls on Saturday evening and says "Is your router working yet?" and I said "No" and he said "That's odd" and I said "No more odd that it was at the beginning of the week really" and he said "I suppose not. You probably need a new one cos the engineer said your one is broken" and I said "I know" and he said "Would you like another one?" and I said "Yes" and he said "We'll send one out next week then" and I said "Oh".
*time passes*
*more time passes*
*boring time-based, lacking in intranetz interlude passes... very, very slowly*
Then I switched to an old router in a moment of inspired desperation and it worked and I could've done it within seconds of the other one breaking thus saving not only a week of frustrating lack of intranetz but also y'all having read this and me having to write this.
*takes deep breath and relaxes*

That's Pontifex syndromé.
and no mistake. You ROCK this place Albion.


Shit, I established such a premises nearly three years ago. Get a flight![]()
Location please.
glad you're back with us all in the land of the nearly living again.


Sucks having no net, really don't realise how much you rely on it til it's gone. Can tell when ours is down because the entire household will be sat in the living room examining the router, phoning the ISP, and rocking back and forth.
Think she can tell I wanna relax tho, which is nice as she's been a terror today, ate me phone charger, shat all over my bed and then kicked it everywhere. Was under cage-arrest til I walked past and she looked at me with them eyes. Sucker, me.

Need to watch The Life and Times of Vivian Vyle, is heavily based on our Jez I think.

It is indeed. Had forgotten all about it but you reminded me. Was quite funny from memory. Am not a huge Jennifer Saunders fan but she gives good Jezzetta![]()
