The government were offering partial funding to install FTTP to fibre optic companies in remote areas not well served by copper DSL. Such an opportunity arrived for us; I’m in a village. It’s not so far too the nearest town but the DSL node is some nine miles away. Maximum FTTC speeds are 80/20 theoretically; practically 50/20. BT are shite.

There’s no 5G here, apparently it’s ‘soon’. 4G is pretty awful. There was no other cable (like Virgin) before.

Anyway, I digress. The cable company installed and now offer the kind of speeds that you’re used to.

Have a look around for this government scheme, and pick a provider and get some support ready to make worth their while. Gigaclear have done a great job here. There are a few niggles but they are few and far between.

BTW if you’re from this side of the water, as you are, it’s opnsense not pfsense you need. 😜

Thank-you.

Do you have any enemies?

Husband is a lucky guy. I guess your ex was hoping for mean reversion (there’s a more appropriate mathematical term that I just can’t think of as I write), with/for his children…

I had a best friend as a sixth former (17-18 yo) who was around your height; I lost my bf because the person I was engaged (then married) to didn’t like her. Subconsciously, I’ve probably always compared everyone to her and the grace and poise with which she presented herself. I’m old now.

Scandinavian girls seem to be a reasonable height. I haven’t spend enough time over there to know for certain that it’s really a thing; and I wasn’t that sad to want to look it up! Wonder if that would suit too? It’s not the 80s anymore though, sadly, and dressing is very different and difficult now.

5’9" is tall. Hope you get to work/wear it well! I want to say ‘congratulations’ … it doesn’t make any sense but congratulations anyway! You/he won the lottery.

Tall women (5’ 7" / 170cm +) walk elegantly and have a poise often denied their shorter counterparts.

Never be worried about being tall. I wish I had been blessed. Both wives were 5’4". I’m 6’ 183cm.

Deciding if I look a dick in the clothes I am trying on, or whether I really really look a dick in the clothes I’m trying on.

The one real advantage in going clothes shopping with a wife or girlfriend, for stuff for oneself.

Oooooh ! You !

Thank-you. I’m much the same.

She’s behind you!

PhD . Not really that convincing if you get the qualification wrong.

Came from a OnePlus 6t to the Pixel.

The CEO had just left to create Nothing. OnePlus 7 owners were complaining about the newly merged interface. So when it was time to change - three year cycle - I went to Pixel 7 Pro.

Still got Nothing on my list for a Pixel 10 competitor.

Which OnePlus do you have and what do you think of it?

Mostly the narrator when the subject receives a kick to the gonads.

Came here to say that. A suspected spam caller won’t even cause the phone to ring.
