The last two weekends have been spent away visiting Edinburgh and Cardiff. I am planning on writing up posts on both of those. However most of my absence from here has been due to my broadband breaking.

It's supposed to be sorted later this week, but I doubt it will be.
Normal service will hopefully be returning soon..

Presumably this is the ADSLMax Up to 8MB service? If so, 20% of people upgraded have been having stability problems (with their ADSL line that is).
