Ordered demon net connection about a week ago. Expected activation? 25th April. How can it take over 2 weeks to turn on ADSL? In the meantime I'm stuck with only my MDA, which only vaguely satisfies my needs.

Also my big computer is officially dead. It's been dying for a long time with me being scared to reboot it as it often required fiddling between boots to work ok.

On the move day I left it free standing in the car while we went out somewhere and it fell over while going over the speed bumps, sounded nasty. Now just get single long beeps on power up with just power, CPU and m/b connected.

Must get email off hard drive. Nothing else is too important.

Life here is good. I am happy. Work is good now that I have a PC with email, and a desk with 4 grands worth of CCTV equipment on it. Unfortunately I don't yet have any cameras to plug into it... d'oh.

My flat is looking good. It's very warm and cosy, it's 5 mins walk from a nature reserve, it's absorbed all of my stuff, it's in a very quiet area and I appear to have very quiet neighbours, mostly.

I'n going to try and arrange some kind of mini-warming... mini because it's not that bog :)

Only a week to go until a real spod connection... yay!
