Interesting Day
March 1st, 2010
Well the day started off strange and just kept getting wierder and wierder. As you may have noticed this is my second blog today, that alone is wierd…. if you read the earlier one you will know about our internet – it hasn’t been working for like ever but mysteriously has started again.
Well I thought it was just a little too inconvenient so I phoned the Telecommunications Ombudsman, they suggested a call to the Director of SkyMesh the company in question. The Director is a very nice man named Paul Rees, he was apologetic and helpful. So for now we will continue to stay with them and hopefully his actions will rectify the problems we have been having – Thank you Paul, see I made the M a capitol letter.
Inbetween phone calls I was trying to finish a painting for an exhibition that opens Wednesday, it was sooo hot I kept jumping in and out of the pool to cool off. The floating li-lo is a magnificent place to be whilst ’standing back’ to get a better look at what you are painting. It did feel strange to be painting dripping wet.
During this painting/swimming the Rural Fire Brigade phoned selling raffle tickets for their fundraising. I had to ask them to phone back as the run between the pool and where my credit card was hidng was too far. By the time they phoned back I had decided it was lunch time and had begun preparing something for myself. During this brief telephone call the kitchen caught on fire… luckily I had the fire Brigade on the other end of the line and they gave detailed instructions on how to put it out… phew. I had to by a new aplience this afternoon, OOps.
Isn’t it great to have the internet at your fingertips… I can look at things whenever I like, check emails at my convenience – but on the other hand isn’t it sad when we begin to rely so heavily on these things that were never a part of our lives until so recently. I don’t know what is best… although I do feel as though I have had my arms taken out of plaster casts now my internet is working again.
Thanks Paul.
