I phoned IT last month as the Internet connection on my office PC kept randomly dropping. They made some minor change, replaced a wire. Emailed today to ask if problem sorted, I cautiously replied it had been ok. Ticket closed. Internet immediately disappeared again 🙄😆

Yeugh, it's been a bad week after I picked up a viral bug (COVID negative, but there's plenty more floating around at present!) Been absolutely floored. Think I'll start 2025 next week 😆 Keep safe folks .
