We're backHaving been told by BT that there would be no phones or Internet for 6 more days the engineers managed to get us back up less than 6hrs. BT engineers are great! BT and a JCBSometime on Sunday night the main BT lines in the area were 'adjusted' with the business end of a JCB. The result was no phones or Internet access today for everyone on our business park and all in the surrounding area. We are assured by BT the normal service will be restored tomorrow (14th of August) sometime in the afternoon. Apologies to all who are trying to e-mail us and anyone who is having trouble getting through to our one mobile, to which all calls are diverted. Naturally no web site is affected and all e-mails to us will come through when the lines return.
