My internet cut out last night at 11.30 and didn't come back on until I went to bed. Guess why? We had fog. Apparently, they've got some sort of laser thing installed on the roof that distributes the connection, and when there's fog or heavy snowfall, it cuts out. Now, there's not a lot of snow in Southampton, but hello - we're next to the fucking sea. Of course there's gonna be fog! Using a set-up like this in a town situated at a coast line: NOT SO SMART. It's happened three times already, but both other times, the fog went away pretty quickly. I'm just hoping for a mostly fog-less winter now - and I am so out of here next year. No way I'm putting up with this shitty network for another year. >:(
I'll probably be going to Cardiff in December to see the Doctor Who exhibition. Good times! :D
