back on line

Three weeks without internet in the office. Once Telstra found out that I was waiting for ADSL and it was not with Bigpond, they simply stopped talking to me. Their excuse was that all they were charging me for was a working phone line, all my other problems were not theirs. My ADSL problems had to be dealt with by my isp. In the end it took an inteligent, local technician to discover that the problem was a line one created by the first technician.

I am also using another unlisted blog attached to blogger.com to collect clippings and record for another work project. Just like tupperware, USB memory sticks and computer discs, th.e blogs are starting to breed.

We are once again working on our moodle site uploading materials old and new.

We have purchased two toolboxes and coming to grips with customising those before uploading.
