No, I haven’t been banned or anything, I’m away with work and the only online access I can get here is at 28.8k through my cellphone connected to my laptop – and as the signal is poor I’m standing here, in the rain, in the middle of a field, typing this.
It’s amazing how much we take things like high speed internet access at home for granted – and how much we realise there is so much of our everyday stuff that we can’t do when we don’t have it.
I’m here in the lovely town of Lyndhurst, set in the beautiful New Forest on the south coast of England. Or, at least it would be, if I could see through the fog more than about 10 metres. I’m sure some of the famous new forest ponies are out there somewhere in the murkiness.
Went in the swimming pool yesterday (might as well, its free) for the first time in about 4 years (i don’t swim well and I don’t like it much) but as there was nobody else around I thought I’d risk it. I’m aching in parts I forgot I had.
I think I’ll stick to using Siggy’s swimmer attachment instead, much less tiring.
But, as I look into the fog, and the grey murkiness, maybe Second Life isn’t so different after all.
