I've had SVR windows & exterior cleaning, to clean my windows on my house, and they truly went above and beyond—more than any other company I've ever used. From now on, they'll be my only choice!

Highly recommend 👌

On Friday, my patience was truly tested, and the sweltering heat in their small office didn't help matters. This client has had a computer setup from me for many years, but her main struggle has always been with using email. Gmail had even completely shut down her email address, and since the security link was sent to an old phone number, we couldn't recover it. She's in her mid-80s.

She was having trouble getting a mobile signal with her old Dora phone in Halberton, so I persuaded her to upgrade to a basic smartphone. I supplied her with a refurbished Samsung A16 5G and set it up with WiFi calling, so she can send and receive texts and calls at home. I also created a new email address and WhatsApp for her. With her family visiting next week, I recommended she talk to them about managing her emails.

Could you survive without having emails at all?

For all things IT-related, I can help.

Great advice from Zero 7 - Get connected. Who are my suppliers of 'Business' communication who are locally based in Barnstaple?

Last night, on August 12th, 2026, there was a partial eclipse of 96% of the Sun,

I spent an unforgettable evening with my sister at the top of Haddon Hill Moor—an iconic lookout offering breathtaking views of Devon and Somerset, as well as Wimberball Lake. This reservoir supplies Tiverton and appeared half-full during this drought year of 2026. The site near Morebath and Upton is where I often meet clients. The atmosphere was electric as crowds gathered to witness the rare eclipse; the last one I saw was shortly after my father, Roy Hart, passed away in 1999—though I can hardly remember exactly where I was at the time.

Today, I imagine my dad would have loved the era’s digital portable telescopes. Gemma and Spencer from Old Holcombe Water Farm Cottages, Exmoor, who we met at Haddon, brought one along, giving us an incredible close-up view of the partial eclipse.

With the Exmoor Dark Festival see link below) running from Friday, October 16th to Sunday, November 1st, 2026, Gemma and Spencer are offering these telescopes for rent—so you can marvel at the night sky just as we did. Or even better, go and stay with them at their farm and immerse yourself in the dark sky experience.

We also saw people capturing the event with all sorts of makeshift cameras—kitchen colanders, cereal boxes—and, of course, the elusive solar viewing glasses, making the night truly special.

As Friday winds down and the week draws to a close, I spent this morning tackling some admin tasks—definitely not my favourite chore.

In the afternoon, I headed out to visit a longstanding client near Tiverton Golf Club who has been with Eclipse Broadband since 2011. Honestly, they’re certainly not the company they once were. Switching broadband providers has been a real nightmare, but I’m placing my trust in Zen Internet, a Rochdale-based firm renowned as one of the best. I’ve already transitioned several of my personal clients to them.
The client is caring for both her parents, who still live with her, so I kept a cool head and stayed calm even when things didn't go as planned.

From my home office, I can see the Mid Devon Show ground—definitely worth a visit on Saturday.
Next week, I’ll be out visiting clients whose laptops aren’t cooperating, across Mid Devon and Exmoor.

All appointments are at your location—no need to lug your equipment around!
