Temporary Loss Of Internet Connection
GRR ... internet access was badly interrupted for several hours - between 11am and around 9pm - in Perth and the surrounding areas yesterday, after road workmen [allegedly] accidentally sliced through a number
of underground telephone cables belonging to 'BT' which apparently supplies the power to most of the local broadband providers.

I suppose one doesn't get to dig holes because of one's brain power.
Where were the supervisors ?
This is what happens when services are accessed randomly on multiple occasions by the various utilities, digging up and back-filling over and over, (causing inconvenience to everybody, and making a horrible mess of roads and pavements) instead of coordinating the works... plus more are using mini-diggers, rather than (more sensitive) hand tools.
Some local authorities insist upon this now, fortunately.

Points taken, Graham; y'know what, though : Having checked - and rechecked - for ANY wires that might've come loose from their respective sockets - and finding NONE, I began to suspect that the cause lay elsewhere ... as, in fact, proved to be the case, on further investigation!

Bust broadband might do me good Arthur .... if I was forced to draw back the curtains, and maybe even step outside.
