A very restless night. I
lay awake for much of the night listening for Fudge's crying. At the
first squeak I was going to fetch him up. He didn't make a sound all
night. I got up earlier than I normally would to see if he was OK
only to find he hadn't been shut in the kitchen. He was sitting at
the bottom of the stairs and he could have come up at any time, but
had chosen not to. Soppy pup.
After brekkie I sat in
the garden with him whilst he destroyed some pop bottles. He was
quite interested when I fed the Koi. I don't think he'd seen them
before. He was fascinated by them; at one point rubbing noses with a
sturgeon.
To the farm shop. For
somewhere that specialises in apples and has apple fairs, I was
amazed to find that they'd sold out of apples. They were waiting for
the new season apparently, so I roughed it with a banana and a
curly-wurly.
Before starting work I
phoned the internet people. It was still down. I got through to yet
another person who couldn't speak English, and after quite a bit of
to-ing and fro-ing I got out through to someone who could mumble
English. Not speak it; mumble it. He mumbled something about British
Telecom being involved in sorting the problem. I came home to be told
that British Telecom had "implemented a solution".
Well - the internet connection is working. Let's hope that this
solution remains implemented....
I'd be inclined to swap
internet provider to British Telecom if not for the fact that they
are seriously more expensive that what I have at the moment. Which is
why I packed up with BT in the first place...
