    Seems to be a lot of problems with UK phone networks today.

    Can't make or receive landline calls.

    Incompetence or sabotage?

    Don't know the cause but local cash machine not working, dentist unable
    to make appointments, internet running slowly and intermittently.

    Also, one of my hard drives developed a fault - but that might be
    coincidence.

    My email on my iPhone (BlueMail) stopped working earlier and I had to
