“Now then, Pooh,” said Christopher Robin, “where’s your boat?”
“I ought to say,” explained Pooh, “that sometimes it’s a Boat, and sometimes it’s more of an Accident. It all depends.”
“Depends on what?”
“On whether I’m on top of it or underneath it.”~A.A.Milne #WednesdayMotivation
For all the ex-#Plessey/#GPT/#Marconi peeps - noticed this only recently a short walk from home: ATE access cover! (“Automatic Telephone & Electric Co Ltd" (1936-1961) was based at the #EdgeLane site in #Liverpool that went on to become Plessey/GPT/Marconi in later years)

EE Voice Call Outage: IMS service which underpins 4G (VoLTE) and WiFi calling reporting "Service Unavailable".
Calling over 2G and 3G works while turning airplane mode on then off or otherwise detaching and reattaching from 4G/WiFi calling appears to bring back normal service.

I too wasted money on @ASOS_UK "Premier next day delivery" - ASOS uses the useless @EvriUK_Help who hold the parcels for days in their "depot" or claim they can't deliver due to "bad weather" when weather's fine. Can't rely on ASOS delivery at all til they use a better courier!
#Evri how can my parcel be out for delivery for the second time and get delayed mid delivery? Your staff just stealing every cunts parcel now ? @ASOS_UK why you still using else thieves to deliver customer's parcels 🤷 absolute disgrace
