And the bad

Remember I was saying how great the internet was, when I shopped on-line from the train to Glasgow? Well, the downside arrived today. My e-mail account terminated itself for no reason [NTL's comment "I'd use another ISP if you want reliable e-mail] I was told it would take "a couple of days" to sort. Imagine the panic, work contacts not getting through, reputation plummeting, aaargh!

"I'd start a hotmail account if I were you", said the NTL man. So I did, and told people to use the new address. And then this afternoon, my original account seemed to be working again. The whole debacle took about 3 hours out of my day. And I'm still not convinced all is well.

Think I might see about changing ISP.
