A satisfying day

Well the day started with me sending back the modem from the student centre.

To cut our bills at the centre we changed from our old internet provider to another.

However, instead of the "unlimited wifi, 4 ethernet port" modem they advertised on their website they sent us the old model - with no wifi! You had to pay extra for a card to add wifi, or pay extra money to get the new modem.

When I asked why they had sent us the old modem they said it was because we are an association. OK.... A bit of discussion and deliberation followed and we decided to change again to another company. At this point we were offered the new modem free, but the decision had been made so we changed. We now await the delivery of the modem from the new company.

Then to France Telecom to sign up the Griffins for phone and internet. We walked away with a very cute little livebox and it should all work within a few days.

Then to the school to enrol their children. The very nice headmistress explained that we have to enrol the kids at the town hall next Monday at 9h30, and then come back to the school with their forms filled in.

Then to Ikea to buy some of the bookshelves, lamps, etc. that the Griffins needed to kit out their house.

Jolly good. Spending other people's money all day !
