Getting online was almost impossible yesterday, most sites timing out and the ones that did manage to load doing so really slowly. A call to Sky and they said there was no issues on their end but considering it was affecting every computer in the house I was dubious about that. Finally, after nearly a day of this they announced that there were connection issues with Sky broadband users in the NE of England. Way to be on the ball, Sky. I had no twitter at all, I had to wake up alone -- I'm not actually that chatty on twitter usually, but the same people tend to be there when I first get up. I'm used to drinking coffee and exchanging a tweet here and there as I wake up -- Sky took that from me D:

Anyway, this post does have a point other that fists of rage against Sky. It's the bandomstuffsit reveal today so, anyone want to guess what I wrote?

I can't offer anything in return as I'm scrambling to get BRBB written, but play anyway? I have been told if you know me it's really easy to know what story is mine and of course, no guesses from betas etc.

I'm guessing Standing on the Edge Believing.

And of course, you were right!

As someone would fights with a crap connection constantly, you have ALL of my sympathies, Terri. *hugs and shakes tiny fist of rage at Sky too*
[Yes, I can multi-task like that. :)]

Tangentially, I have an ~idea and was wondering if I could email you about it?

[turps]

It was the worst, and seemingly random in terms of which sites would actually try to load or not do a thing.

And sure, email away :)

Well, I'm glad that the issue got resolved.

ISPs are all evil!! *joins you in shaking fist at them* I hope your internet connection will behave itself properly in the future. Being without internet is terrible!

I've already guessed (and been right!) so I'm not doing it again ;-)

It better behave itself. One of the pages that did load was a Sky forum and you'd think when they started to get multiple complaints from people living in the NE they'd realise something was wrong.

You were classed in with that etc! *g*

Boo to Sky! I swear ISPs can be so tacky. >:(

ISPs are the worst sometimes >:(
