We have just been on the phone with a lovely man called Marc. He is going to monitor our phone and internet for dropouts.

I wondered afterwards whether he was from montsnmags enterprises!

Not as far as I am aware, though you should realise I have a fractured, distributed state of awareness and frequently answer the phone to calls for assistance from myself.

Just in case it is me though, then I assure you that Diethyl Ethernet Industries (a wholly owned subsidiary of Montsnmags Enterprises) stands by its product 100%...literally...our data risk management plan involves mirrored copies not only of all infrastructure, but every employee. To offset the cost of doubling our Human Resources budget we have extracted each employee's evil twin from this particular universe's mirror universe and, with the help of the skilled hoard of undead that is our legal team, obtained declarative judgements that we only have to pay each pair once, as they are the same person (evil/good attributes aside).

Your local phone and internet connection is 100% guaranteed from all non-Lovecraftian dropouts, though if you start to hear strange, deep utterances of the word "ZUUL" coming from your fridge, we recommend disconnecting at the wall socket.

We are grateful to have you as a customer, and hope you enjoy your service. Should you have any further enquiries, please contact the provided Squirrel Support number, and eleventy, small, furry, IT technicians (dressed in the usual "pirate-ninja" attire) will instantly appear within your living room to resolve and eradicate your complaint...err, problem.

NOW WITH MORE TENTACLES!

So, you are your own SETI@Home/folding farm?

As a professional I have to disagree with this assessment; disconnecting may not prevent the user from turning into a Hell-Beast and sprinting for the roof where he/she risks being called rude names by Bill Murray. Worse, the user may be subjected to a series of very bad sequels.

hahahahahahahahahaha!

ahem! The NICE Marc wanted me to plug the phone in one socket and the modem in the other. So now we have phones everywhere because the VIOP can stay as it was. So we can make outgoing phone calls as normal except for 13 numbers because the VIOP bypass will not work because the actual phone is plugged into a different socket.

So to recap we receive phone calls and make 13 calls by using the emergency telstra phone, and other calls by using the normal phone which is still connected to VOIP.

As you can tell I have had my dinner which included 2 glasses of vino.,....

I think I may have another one.......... later........

I'm baking muffins, some with home-made rose-hip jam, some with chocolate chunks.
