Never did I imagine how different life would be without any internet other than on my phone.
For 18 days.
But
We
Have
Moved!!!!
Delighted with the move which was many years in the happening, have settled on a not so perfect house but, given the current market and our reluctance to move away from the area, is the best available.
So much of work was done before we moved, and the past two weeks, so much more work has been done.
But, this post is about finally having our internet back, with the delay by Virgin in installing the phone/tv/broadband. We have made the big jump and switched from Sky and BT after many years. All because the husband very keen on fibre optic broadband. Wish I could say its been worth the two week wait but its more or less the same really, other than the much faster broadband, the reason for us shifting. The Virgin TiVo box is slightly better than the Sky box, a few more features like apps and games on the box, most of which are not free though. Miss the Indian channels like Star which were free with Sky. Youngest child very happy to have his Peppa Pig back on again.
I missed the internet the most, rather on my laptop. Took the children in the holidays to a soft play which had free wifi and sadly enjoyed it so much (fortunately took the ipad along). I dont like my tiny phone screen for checking emails or browsing.
Anyway, future posts of our before and after pictures of the house. Finally have my lovely range cooker but will leave a post to that or will go on forever.
