Why? Because, BT (that's British Telecom) have taken the liberty to process out internet move three days earlier than requested. Thanks again, BT. We remember how it took you 10 days to transfer our internet line from one flat to the one right next to it, and in the end the 'engineer' pressed one button and went, oops, forgot that.
Now, thanks to your efficient services and employees, we can't blog, I can't monitor the ebay auctions for a car seat for Tara, will loose the bargain seat near home, and I'm spending time in an internet cafe in town to get crucial details like the van hire details or phone contact and pick up details for the cot we got Tara and have to pick up today, while we have the van for 24 hours, and need to go across the country in it and back. Thanks also, BT, for keeping me waiting in your queue for 20 minutes before I was allowed to speak to someone in the first place.
I can't make calls on the internet to friend abroad that I'd wanted to make urgently. And all that on a day that's so packed I haven't really got the time to blow my nose.
Thanks, BT, I hope you're looking forward to my formal complaint.
And to all that have wished us a smooth move, well... COULD have worked, but it ain't looking good just now! And let's just repeat why: Yes, BT's (that's British Telecom) incredible service.
SHOULD they manage to get us reconnected in Kent, you'll hear from us soon.

Hmmm, I wonder if BT is in any way connected to the idiots working for Time Warner here in North Carolina? We had the same situation moving into our house...except not only did they leave us without internet for 10 days (! might as well have been a YEAR!) but they dug up our neighbors line across our entire back yard leaving THEM without internet for a week (yes, a nice welcoming gift on our part) and a trench deep enough for us to hide our mini-van in. Maybe it is a prereq. that you've got to be able to cause as much chaos as possible. Looking forward to seeing your new place soon! Oh, and those pole dancing class photos as well!
Hey, how are you guys coping? Hope you didn't get lost between lettuce leaves or drown in mayonnaise. Thinking of you,
