      Last time it changed, they gave me one that had previously been geolocated to some remote spot a few miles north of Neath, so that's where Google Maps insisted on starting for me for a few weeks
      Yep virgin media business do but Virgin Media won't as why would any consumer want a fixed IP address. I actually don't have it for my Business account as I've never actually seen the need - I don't have anything that requires me to lock down to specific IP addresses.
      merely at clientco for the entertainment

        Apart from remote debugging, I have it mainly configured for inbound rules on AWS Security Groups. Thinking about it, I'm not sure if they even take domain names or if they're restricted to IP addresses and ranges.

          Lunch suitable for the grey, damp day: zingy chicken, tomato and lentil soup with both kinds of bread

            It's also worth saying that I think the Business package is cheaper than the undiscounted consumer product - I know I pay less now for the business account than I did when I removed the pointless phone line from the consumer account.

                I'll have to have a look at them. Apart from anything else, the phone line hasn't worked for ten years - they'd fix it, it'd break again within a month or so, and in the end I just gave up because what use is a landline anyway

                    It's finally stopped raining for a while.

                    I wonder if a walk might be walked without getting drenched.

                    I see a patch of blue sky so I'm off out now just.

                      There has been a slight moistening of the ground but there's nothing actively ongoing at the moment.
