They Cut Off My Arm

I Had Hoped

I knew when I went into hospital that I was going to have a wait until my Warfarin levels were back to normal. That’s why I had put so much thought into keeping myself busy before I set off for Liverpool.

The set up was perfect, a nice compact Eee PC and a Wireless Broadband Dongle from 3. I was prepared for problems with the Dongle, there are complaints about coverage etc, but everything was perfect. It worked a charm and was actually fasterthat I expected.

So, before the Op was fine. Lots of surfing done. I was a happy boy.

After the Op, the plan went skywards. I had a project and because everything had worked so well I was looking forward to getting stuck in.

On went the computer and up popped an error message. The SIM card in your Dongle is either missing or not inserted correctly. Connection cannot be established.

Buggar. I now had the prospect of another 4 days in hospital without my connection.

A call to 3 got me nowhere (post to come). So I’ve written a couple of posts to be published but just this evening I found TBlogger, a little app that lets me publish from my phone. This post is the result. If it works, I’ll be back with more details.
