What No Internet!

Goldfinch60

The man came to upgrade

Upgrade the Internet

Pleasant guy, full of good humour 

Set it all up and left

Saying it would take a couple of hours

A couple of hours to set up

Well hear I am the following day

With no Internet

No telephone

And only Mary's phone to connect 

Connect to an Internet

SI that that is how

How these words get here.

    As someone mentioned, when I bemoaned very similar circumstances - 'Been there, got the t shirt'. I predict you will get flooded with oceans of empathy over this, Andy.
    Twenty years ago (I came late to the 'wonderful' world of the web) I would not have believed how dependent I am......

    • Goldfinch60

      Very true Dave, we are so dependent on the Web nowadays. Thank you.

        The one particular horror of the 21st century! Lack in of internet connectivity: wifi is king!

          Disaster at the door disguised as an angel. I've met that same imposter and been taken in by his silver tongue only to suffer the consequences of deception. Good luck my friend. Sorry to enjoy the fruits of your misery but the read was fun and most identifiable

          • Goldfinch60

            So true soren, all is well at the moment until the engineer comes today to ensure all is well. LOL

                It happened to me
                just last week too! 😞
                Had to put in a work order,
                then took them
                three more days to do! 😡😠
                Thanks for sharing!! 👍
                Best regards ✌️ thad
