    Anyone else working in the West End/Paddington/Marble Arch area had all connectivity disappear at their office? Due to water ingress at a BT exchange in Paddington apparently. ETA on a fix, last time we spoke to them, was 'unknown'. Luckily, I'm in Glasgow at the moment - feel for the poor sods stuck down in our London office though!

    Yep - a flood caused the fire. All that's left is famine and pestilence and we're all done for!
