You are not alone. Yip, it's a moan, but with good reason. My sister had
ordered one and believed it would just pick the internet "out of the air."
She was annoyed when I explained to her!

As a local independent computer shop, I would like to point out that
late at night my bricks gets cold and all my windows frost over.
This isn't helped at all by drunken bums going for a wee on my door and
farting through the letterbox.

Have any other buildings noticed this total lack of respect?
