I think the grid system offended my delicate sensibilities.
Best keep your delicate sensibilities in a pair of thermals overlaid with a flannelette pair of lead lined Y fronts then and the electromagnetic effects of the grid should be neutralised

If it's any consolation, I'm at my desk about to do an online interview and there's water pouring through the ceiling into a bucket beside me. The plumber was supposed to be here yesterday. No answer on the phones.

Me too VB. Finally got home after a shitty week to discover that there's a puncture in the car's tyre that will need fixing in the morning. Guess where I'm spending the weekend....

And the app wouldn't load on the one laptop, so last minute transfer to another. Halfway through, Broadband drops out so finished up on the phone. Talk about technology making life easier.

It could be the Rooosians. From a countryman of yours today ..
Hoping all goes well with the feed as my local broadband provider sent me a mail warning that with NATO exercises off the coast there may be problems with signal. Don't know if it's a Russian invasion or the Royal Navy sent up in case of an SNP majority this weekend
It is weird when you get those kind of notifications though. There's some powerful electronics on those boats and last time it happened it did knock us out at various times. Fingers crossed it's plain sailing tonight.
