O2 4U

I've been having a little trouble with my O2 broadband wireless reuter for the last few months. Mostly it works but it likes to stop working for a couple of minutes every once in a while which can be really infuriating. To be fair (Why should I be fair, really?), the fault/blame may not lie with O2, it could be BT, for it is their lines that O2 and I are trying to use.
Either way, when I informed O2 of the problem they asked me to press the reset button. Job done. Except the problem returned. So they suggested changing the ADSL filter with the spare that comes in the box. That seemed to do the trick and they said they'd pop another filter in the post for me, just in case. When it happened again, I swapped the filter... Again.
So, are we happy now? Not yet. Guess what happened next. Yup. So I called O2 again and they said they'd send me a new reuter which I should recieve in 3 days, which they did, which I did. Anyway, I've just finished installing the software and everything so let's keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best.

Clip clip ✂ snip snip

I had my hair cut today. By my wife! And I'll tell you something for nothing, she did a bloody good job, too.
Neither of us were entirely sure what we were doing but with my feel (do it harder, yeah, that's good, etc*) and her eyes (that doesn't look right**) we managed to get through it in one piece. Well, I didn't. I was scattered all over the floor in many pieces. Actually, If she had managed to clip an ear or snip a finger, I would have been astonished because I had total faith in my wife and the thought never entered my head until long after she had finished.




Will I be asking her indoors to step up the next time my Barnett needs seeing to? You betcha!
