Well after 6 months we have finally been connected to the outside world, it was
like christmas had arrived early for me, you just don't realise how much we take having a phone and wifi for granted until you have to do without it for so long.
When we applied for a phone Movistar told us 'It is not possible where you live'. We live in the Gotmar area and not high up in the mountains so we couldn't understand why! They kept saying there were 'no wires' or that 'the present pole could not accept any more wires', to cut a very, very long story short it turns out they were looking at the wrong pole!!
After a lot of perseverance by our administrator, we were connected this week, it took 6 months but its wonderful to be back in the electronic age, It's hard to put into words how I feel but can only liken it to feeling like a kid at Christmas time.

Now it's so easy just to pick up my tablet you will probably be hearing more from me, I will be able to contribute instead of just reading.
The moral of this story is; don't take no for an answer!
Now to tackle the Sky box not working problem
