Well as I type this, I've almost finished building this site. I had a total nightmare yesterday trying to upload a three and a half minute video clip to You tube. It was entirely down to my lousy village broadband which runs at...get this 54k. That's 2k less than the last incarnation of dial up modems! My god, I like living in Barnham but BT really need to get their shit together! If you think the word "shit" is bad then you shouldn't be anywhere near me when I boot up this 'puter. We are so far behind the rest of Europe on this with our ancient neolithic copper wire system. I look at Fred Flintstone with his stone phone and get a little jealous..I guess this might be because we were among the first with telephones? I don't know but I think we're due for an update Mr Marshall and your coy looking bird.
Here endeth todays blog.
Today I was working on my other site (www.cloudandsun.com) and god knows no end of problems came up. I have been working with the worlds moodiest web software for 5 years now. I bought it in Office Depot in Los Angeles in 2003 and have been faithful to it ever since . It has more bugs than a ships biscuit on the Cutty Sark. To give you an idea, they update it about once every three years.
All I wanted to do was install some videos on a new page and ad a link of a fellow business on another, but I might as well have asked Robert Mugabe to run a country. I'd made the mortal mistake of fiddling around a little with the page file names and as a result upon upload they were missing from the servers. Reason: the missing pages had gaps in the titles... I have to say the help and support is usually "awsome" as i have to phone America for it. I could phone the Plymouth office in Devon But they don't like to speak to you directly. You have to get this thing called a "support ticket" which translated means "if you want our support you can stick it!" i love what I've made of the site despite problems such as the text coming out different in the online published site but the bugs just make me want to go off and do something else which I shouldn't mention here.
I have finally had enough and moved over to the software for the site which you are now gently cruising at 40 000 feet with excellent weather and just l little dash of turbulance to remind you that you're still alive.
This is captain Mike. Have a pleasant flight.
