Upgraded the firmware and fiddled with the router a bit more this morning. Hope I haven't done anything that'd make it disconnect and make giving_ground be without internet today. >>

I have been given advice from some techy people and hopefully BT's system will sort my problem out in the next few days.

While looking around, I found some info on installing powerline/home plug networking, which is what home in HK has been using for the last few years. Considered exploring it further and then thought, why bother? I don't need that. At all. XD;;;;

This morning, while walking to work, I found myself trying to map out the layout of my boarding school in my mind. There are lots of bits of areas that just wouldn't connect. Like, after going up those stairs, how do I get to the school office again? Or how did the Berrymeade corridor connect with Newquay, and after going down the stairs at the end of Berrymeade, do I come out right next to the Year 8 common room, or the Year 7 tutor rooms? I guess my school did have weird corridors and stairs. The overall layout must have been designed to get people lost.

[edit] They WHAT? They want me to get to COVENTRY for 9:30am???

Oh. My. God.

I know this kind of British shools are in every textbook as typical for the country etc, but it's still a bit shocking to realize they actually exist in reality ))))

It's a lot shinier now than when I was there! A lot of the newer facilities were completed during my last 2 years at the school. Back then, the school fees weren't astronomical figures.... But yeah, it does exist! I don't know if it's typical or not though. XD
