HOME THOUGHTS, FROM ABROAD
O, to be in England
Now that April 's there,
And whoever wakes in England
Sees, some morning, unaware,
That the lowest boughs and the brushwood sheaf
Round the elm-tree bole are in tiny leaf,
While the chaffinch sings on the orchard bough
In England—now!
And after April, when May follows,
And the whitethroat builds, and all the swallows!
Hark, where my blossom'd pear-tree in the hedge
Leans to the field and scatters on the clover
Blossoms and dewdrops—at the bent spray's edge—
That 's the wise thrush; he sings each song twice over,
Lest you should think he never could recapture
The first fine careless rapture!
And though the fields look rough with hoary dew,
All will be gay when noontide wakes anew
The buttercups, the little children's dower
—Far brighter than this gaudy melon-flower!

I was only trying to cheer you (all) up. Robert Browning certainly had his moments too.
Ignorance is bliss, bliss is happiness, I am happy...to draw your attention to the possible connectivity in the foregoing. - 28 February 2012 10:55156376The 3 network has it's critics but if you are in a area with good coverage the 3g and internet is far quicker than O2.Audere est facere.
- 28 February 2012 11:20156384Why not give this a try and let us all know how you get on, all you smart-phone users...

Confirms my experience with my own phone.
Mel, my tribulations in the Modern Life thread with my phone going on-line and spending my money without asking are with O2, still waiting to hear back from them with my on-line complaint that they should respond to by tomorrow. Unless I'm happy with their response it gets formal.
- 28 February 2012 13:40156411Most odd. I've been with O2 since it was BT Cellnet and had very little trouble with either their service or getting a signal. On the one occasion I had a problem with being charged to receive service text messages I was instantly refunded.
My wife has a contract with Orange - again never had any problems with them.
As for Carphone Warehouse, well that's a different story altogether!

If at first you don't succeed, use a BIGGER hammer!! - 28 February 2012 14:07156414Phil, you've been with them that long, have you still got the phone the size of a brick with a foot long aerial!?
Just a joke but there is a point behind it, as phones have got smaller I think their reception has got worse but it's difficult to find out the info to compare models when you're looking for a new one - unless anyone can point us to a link maybe. - 28 February 2012 16:29156446im bored of all the lame excuSes as to why i cant use the network to full capacity ive been told a mast is down at western docks and somewhere else in Dover, that its a big local problem yet nothing seems to be done to sort it. im fed up of going in there to listen to the same old tripe i wish i had never left Vodafone .
