A sunny day here, Keith, after a very poor weekend. We have all been out on our bikes enjoying it I should think.
Ah it's not just mine then, it's working at the moment but has been very erratic for over a week now with a number of complete outages. I believe from your website address that you have the same ISP as me and it would seem they're having problems.
I think recent special offers of telephone line rental + broadband have increased customer numbers beyond what they can cope with.
my g/f lives on the old air base at finngingly and they have to use the old telephone exchange, when i speed test my broad band at home in hull i get 3995 speed..when i test it at her's she gets 150.......download a clip off youtube and it takes 5 minutes to download it befor you can play it..lol......feels like broadband permanently out of action..lol..
very true...i didnt take my bike at the weekend as i went on friday and would have got blown off if i had attempted to ride it....so looking forward to my next ride either tomorrow or more likely wednesday....getting withdrawl symptoms i am..for real
yes it is...and although she lives just 1 mile from it we very rarely ever hear a plane, must be they take off in the other directions and wind not in this direction..its so quiet i keep meaning to go and have a look to see what is happening there...
A freind of mine owns a half share in a single engined Eurostar aircraft and flies to Robin Hood when they waive the landing fees for visiting aircraft, presumably to increase visitor numbers and give the illusion of a busy airport.
A pity the aircraft isn't big enough to hold a bike.

they must be xpecting mssive growth in the airport and hundreds of new huse have gone up, areas of old little shop units where forcebly sod and area flattened, lots of new style office's built ready for the invasion of business's.. however as only one runways, although not sure if not one of the longest...they will need to build more if they capture demand...they have just completed a new stretch of road that i think links off the motorway and talk of a new line going there from doncaster for rail link...half hope it doesnt...pardon the pun..."take off" as i like the quiet area as it is, dont want it spoiling...its a nice area for bike riding without too much traffic hazard.....

I stick with them because they're cheap, £20 a month for line rental, phone calls and broadband, although a recent upgrade to (up to) 8Mbps has made very little difference to speed but has been very detrimental to reliability, a couple of hours down time most days although on the good days it's while I'm at work.
I've had to switch a number of times over the years, and now get over the change of address problem with a small annual fee to
Pobox.com - Email Forwarding, Personal Domains, Spam Protection
They do email and web urls and are very sound and reliable I find.
Now, Keith, you must get on top of this addiction you know.
Try sucking fruit gums.Related Articles
