A day of contrasting results

Yesterday, after more than six months of trying, I finally realised why our broadband was operating at carrier pigeon speed and managed to fix it.

Bully for me.

But did this wondrous achievement counterbalance the "disappointment" felt after I broke the garage door several hours earlier and had to cough up £125 to get an emergency man out to repair the damage?

Er, no, it didn't.
