What happened yesterday
Just a quick one, still at work on a Friday evening and want to get out of here as quickly as possible.

Long story short: NTL didn't turn up.

No TV, no phone, no broadband, no cool blog entries, no downloading movies starring radioactive spiders and a wet Kirstin Dunst, no plausible excuses from the scum sucking toads who call themselves a telecommunications company, no likely installation date, no chance I could take another day off from work even if they gave me a new installation date, no luck getting through to NTL having sat through less than 1 hour of music on hold, no possibility that the first person you get through to will be able to solve your problem without transferring you to another person who will be at least one hour of music on hold away, not one promised update phone call to me yet made by NTL, no way I'm going to get over my general peevishness without resorting to cynicism.

Ack.

Am very seriously considering going back to Sky/BT (who, by an incredible coinidence have just started a new ADSL free installation offer).

Anyhow, time to head off into the sunset. Tomorrow I might try posting an entry from the cybercafe near my home.

We'll see...

Three days to go
Finally some news for you wonderfully patient people. Sometime this Thursday I will have my new broadband/cable connection installed. I have to take the whole day off, because NTL are unable to give me an installation time, but I should definitely have something online by close of day. Obviously it will have to wait until I've started downloading any movies I can find about people bitten by radioactive spiders, you understand such things I hope, but soon after I'll be able to post a proper blog entry for the first time in a long while.
