No Cam Until 6pm
Posted: 28 Apr 2009 09:27:34
Hi Folks, I am sorry to inform you but there will be no live stream until 6pm today due to some very "friendly" (not) electricity engineers doing some work on some electricity supply somewhere on our farm. These "friendly" folks (not) turned up this morning, not unannounced (granted), but were very rude when we gave way to them so they could get their 4x4 past us on our single track lane on our land... we were completely blanked... friendly... Anyway back to the point, they are doing some maintainance and they said they would be back online today but of course what these people say and what actually happens is often two different kettles of fish... so we will see... but hopefully we should be back online by 6pm tonight UK time all being well.
In the meantime, there are the highlights to keep you entertained on lamby action :)

So sorry to hear about your troubles with the Electricity Board. After all your recent very hard graft getting a new Lambwatch Server working you must feel like "killing" the people who organised this shut down of power
Fingers crossed things will be back to normal tonight.

It was planned maintainance and we have known about it for a while, I just forgot to notify sooner as it completely slipped my mind. It will do the computer good to have a rest for a while :) And I am confident it will be back tonight.

You mean I have to work instead of watching Lambs and Sheep? Well, that's life, I guess! I'm sorry the electrics folks were rather rude about accessing the property and doing repairs. We'll all connect later.
