Yup, my isp managed to disconnect our land line, so we're officially off the grid. I've picked up one of these mobile internet dongles from my mobile phone company, but the connection is terrible!
One of my pet peeves is people won't don't do their jobs properly and this is a classic case of that. Long story short, my isp thought our service was do to end (it wasn't,) so I confirmed with them, twice, that there would be no change or interruption. Boom! Two weeks later, disconnected. Raging doesn't even begin to describe it. I haven't decided yet what to do long term, but I'll need something better than this before too long!
On the gaming front, I managed to get to the club this week for the first time in weeks. So I've got a couple games scheduled for later in the month. Other than that, work continues on my 28mm SS and on my little side project, and the first batch of recent purchases have arrived (40K box set and some Osprey books.)
Curses! My favourite one when my internet went down was ringing up the helpdesk, only to be directed to the online help Q&A troubleshooter flowchart...
ReplyDeleteI'm liking the sound of these projects coming together. What Osprey books are they?
Thanks, progress on paper looks a lot more impressive than the progress on the tabletop! Picked up a couple books on eBay, Samurai Commanders and Essential Histories: Ancient Israel At War, they look good so far.
DeleteGrrrrr! There is nothing more infuriating!
ReplyDeleteDamn internet!
ReplyDeleteThe first sign of the Zombie Apocalypse is internet going out. Don't look now but that's not the cable guy at your front door!
ReplyDeleteAccording to a quiz I took earlier this year, I'd last 399 days of a Zombie Apocalypse! The link is in a post at end of May!
DeleteHope you are back up and running soon!
