After a month away, we now once more have broadband. And we've missed it! It has meant that we have done more useful things with our time, like so stuff in the garden. But it has meant difficulty with email, TV listings, consumer reviews, shopping, and other trivial stuff.
We had nothing for three weeks, then we got a telephone line and 56k dial-up. I'd forgotten how slow it was, and now all websites are content rich, assuming you all have fast broadband, making it (effectively) even slower to use.
But now, thanks to Virgin, we have a fast broadband connection of approximately 100 times the speed of the dial up. And I shall promise to try and use it less and do more worthwhile things, but I'm very glad to have it back....
