Good things come in blue
I had to work from home on Tuesday, because I had Virgin coming out to install internet, phone and tv. Was just going to get internet, but the rest was only a few pounds more a month (they were having a really good deal) so seemed a no brainer.
I got their slowest internet, because it was already at least ten times faster than what I had had previously. In reality, it’s even faster. Tuesday night it took me just 2-3 mins to download something it usually takes 45min. On a good day.
And that same morning, my landlord popped over to drill a hile in the kitchen cupboard so my dishwasher could be installed. Which he did too. After he left, I piled in all the dishes I’d been saving for the dishwasher since the weekend (I’m no dummy) and washed them. Oh, ok, it wasn’t quite as simple as that. I had to call Nicki first to find out how much salt I should be adding. I’d poured almost 2kg in and it just seemed to keep wanting more. And I hit the start button several times because it wasn’t starting. I thought. Yep, it’s THAT quiet.
It does a fantastic job, gives me nice and shiny dishes and glasses, and even dry plasticware. Plus, gotta love the cool blue light.
Me is very happy with my shiny new blue-light toys

“The light was misty and actinic, the sort of light to make Steven Spielberg reach for his copyright lawyer.”
DSL over copper, HFC cable or one of those fibre-to-the-home schemes I hear they’re starting to roll out over there?
