    This tool:

    Will tell you if you have a known exchange issue. I doesnt matter that its a PlusNet tool, the exchange is common to many providers.

    I read that news today.
    Apparently 10,000 holes had opened up in Blackburn Lancashire
    Broadband unlikely to be restored until they are all counted.
    Early estimates are that there may be enough to fill the Albert Hall.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    A number of Talk talk customers in Maghull & Lydiate (near Southport, Merseyside) have had no phone /broadband since Saturday according to a friend who rang me on their mobile this morning!
    Hope you get reconnected soon

    TalkTalk would love to turn you on...
    But it's not in their script.

    The Albert Hall already contains an infinite number of holes and there is plenty of room for more. That new stuff is really good isn't it?
