The day started well enough, helping Urban-cub publicize her flat for rent online. Already there has been a deal of interest and one request to view. So that was satisfying. GF then pottered about creating an advert that she can put up on the wall at work. All-in-all he was happy with progress.
He went outside to make the most of the sun but after a while thought he could hear the distant rumble of thunder. He popped in to view the storm track, and that was when he realised that all was not well.
There was lack of humming noises in the study. There was a lack of lights in the study. The main computer (Falcon) was down.
- Had GF switched it off accidentally? - No.
- Was it a fuse in the house circuit? - No.
- Was it a fuse on the powercable? - No.
- Was he in trouble? - Oh yes!
Now fortunately the Gorse Fox is paranoid and so he has plenty of backups that should be no more than 30 minutes out of date... but the frustrating thing is having to either get the base unit fixed or replaced (and in the latter case the money and time it will take to get everything back to normal).
