People say life is the thing, but I prefer reading*

You don't know what you've got till it's gone...

No internet. Not even dial-up. At first we thought we just wouldn't be able to have broadband, but we can't even have the Slowest Slow Method of Slow Internet Connection Did I Mention That It's Slow? because BT want £130 to install a phone line. Pah! Like that's gonna happen.

I miss GOOGLE.
I miss email.
I miss BBC News.
I miss Dooce and Amalah.
I miss Amazon
I miss eBay.

I came up with a really clever idea for a post last night while I was sitting at my stupid useless non-Internet-connected PC fiddling about with iTunes just so that I FELT like I was on the internet. Do you think I can remember today what it was? It's disappeared into the black void in my head where are my best-selling novel ideas are.

I feel like I've lost a limb!
