    was gone here in ballybricken, but back now.

    last time this happened about 9 months back my PC never came back on, had to send it on its way to a skip. Wsa biting my nails for past 20 minutes. :D

    All the security alarms on the shops here are driving me bonkers.

    Not the whole IDA was gone. I'm on the Western extension, and we've had no problems.

    Blimey, surge protection socket sets are a good idea too!
