Default Ghost in the Machine

Anyone else having very odd behaviour in their mobile networks today?

A chunk of the corporate Vodafone network has vaporised.

My Orange network is behaving very wierdly - I tried to call someone and was patched into a conversation between two people I don't know at all.

My point was that whilst the Vodafone issue is well known - it is odd that Orange is also having weird issues.

I did actually post a thoroughly informative piece up, but then realised it was an internal communique only - so went for the sarky approach instead

Don't know about Ghosts in the machines, but I seriously think my phone is getting raped when I'm not looking. As the juice keeps getting sucked out of the battery very quickly these days.
