A comment on communications

Sarah made a comment in an sms that the "Three Men in a Boat" are travelling in a fourth world country. It does sometimes feel like that!

All of us are regularly checking our phones (and my case iPad) to see how many 'bars' of connectivity we have. It seems incredible that in a country as advanced as the UK, communicataions are so poor. Even when visiting a pub that advertises "Free Wi-fi" more often than not it does not work.

I suppose that out in the country there is no need for good communications. Also, when one considers that those of us who are travelling the canals are supposed to be on holiday, it makes sense that we are not that important to the communications companies. But it would be good to have a choice!

So, that is why the blogs are delayed
