Did you miss me?  Grin

We moved into our new place on Monday, and I've been without an internet connection since then Angry

Now I'm back, albeit on a crappy dial-up connection. How people (including me!) managed to survive in the 'olden days' before the internet, I'll never know...

perhaps you could give us some notice next time

asking for an immediate answer with the writers guild on strike is a bit unreasonable

JRB--

I assume the broadband connection isn't installed yet, but is on order. 

The new place will be a project-rich environment for you?   Smiley

Broadband isn't on order yet, due to the sheer incompetence of BT (British Telecom), who hold a monopoly on the comunications infrastructure in the UK. Angry I'll resist the temptation to rant further!

And yes, 'project rich' would be an accurate description! The entire house needs replastering (I went on a plastering course a few weeks ago, and will be doing this all myself), rewiring, new CH system, etc. Still, at least I've now got my own workshop space!!! I'll be posting pics of that when I get around to taking some.

Not at all - the idea of staying on dial-up for the next month or so fills me with glee... Cry
