Latest moan from you and me - 2016

Thanks @Anthony Rogers. To be honest I think getting a taxi is justified from where I live. If I drive it's almost impossible to find a parking place within about 1/2 hour walk and if I take public transport that's a car journey of about 10 miles to a train station, train and 2 buses to get to where I need to go. Time for journey, approx. 2 1/2 hours. All this for about 1 minute in the witness box about a flaming dog. If it transpires I'll be sure to get a taxi receipt !

 

When your internet provider sends a message back to outlook saying you have been denied access and that your password is not accepted. So you go in to change it - and this keeps happening so 5 times later you contact them and they try to fix it then after an hour and a half (this morning) they finally admit that THEY have a problem and now no one knows what the he double hockey sticks the password is but please check back in about an hour.....

 

Sorry to laugh Lori, but, seriously, you just couldn't make it up!

Hope it all gets sorted out soon.

 

I already have a new password selected for when I'm able to enter it. And it is not one that can be entered here....

 

I sympathise @CanadianLori ! I've been in a similar situation this week with a national, high street, clothing retailer. The only firm on my favourites list that couldn't do a straight forward change of my email address. I'd left them 'til last too because I suspected I would have issues.

 

I haven't had any internet and most of our tv channels have been AWOL for over 24hrs. I didn't realise how much I would miss the internet - must be addicted to it . Everything is back on now but we haven't cancelled the engineer who's due here on Friday. Just incase it all goes off again....

Getting fed up with the dark nights.. it's too dark to do anything in the garden by the time I get home from work :(

Thank you for the encouraging words @wiseowl . It's just that I miss my garden .

 

I really hate this weather at the moment but can see that it is getting a bit lighter in the mornings and staying lighter longer in the evenings but I go from either not being able to sleep until around four in the morning,or I do sleep and then can't wake up so end up having to drag myself out of bed then walk round like a zombie for the rest of the day.

I think the last time I had a good nights sleep was when I was single and slept in a bed on my own

 

So, instead ... you could "plan" your garden; drool over seed catalogues; buy a second hand pith helmet and go out on slug patrol; set up a window propagator; grow edible sprouting seeds; buy some house plants and pander to their needs; get other half to fix you up some outside lighting; or, if all else fails ... post lots of questions on here

Hmm, there could be a solution to your problem hidden in the sentence (and I don't mean become single again)
