I have to admit that I'm not one of nature's gentlemen. :-0

People like me are required so that others can see how real gentlemen act :-P :-D :-D :-D

Rollo, I have no need for high speed access. :-)

I don't download films or play games on the computer. It is used exclusively for 'normal' activity, emails etc. so for me the speed is fine, but apart from that we have to switch as in a few months the old copper network will be switched off.

All's well with the world; our main phone was connected this morning (WA time) after I phoned our ISP.

Usually there is a wait time of up to 30 minutes before you can actually speak to someone :-0 but this time I phoned at 0530 and got straight through :-D :-D

Apparently, the service was active from Monday this week but I never received an email letting me know :-|

"Hey, Allan, I'm your telephone man
You just show me where you want it and I'll put it where I can
I can put it in the bedroom, I can put it in the hall
I can put it in the bathroom, I can hang it on the wall
You can have it with a buzz, you can have it with a ring
And if you really want it you can have a ding-a-ling
Because-a, hey Allan, I'm your telephone man"
