Hi Everyone :wave:
I was getting V+ box fitted yesterday, and engineer said we had a weak signal and our cables are under our floor (was there when we bought house) he reckoned they would be corroded, so he had to drill from outside the house, lead cable through DD’s room into LR so you can imagine the mess in DD’s room, all sorts of stuff had to be pulled out. But I have now fixed my router and internet connection but a friend came for an unexpected visit last night so I never managed to get on.
lav1979 – Good luck with the scan
Greenbee – My lappie kept losing the wireless signal, it was my firewall that was blocking it after a windows update changed the settings
Mumto5 – Happy DD2’s birthday and I saw the Lovely Bones last (Orange) Wed and enjoyed it as well
Valli – Well done :T
Triker - I am waiting until at least April to sell my mountain of stuff!! But hope the weather is ok for you
Soappie Dentist on time and smooth journey vibes for you.
