Frustration is:

Trying to follow US presidential results with an internet connection which suddenly develops an aversion to US based websites. Like the ones reporting US presidential results.

Luckily BBC has streaming coverage, so I don't have to wait for results more than my artificially shortened attention span can handle. However I do have to sit through the presenters trying to explain the US electoral college system to BBC viewers - bear in mind that I have yet to find a British person who understands MMP, so complex voting systems are not easily understood here.

The next question is whether TVNZ will be offering streaming of the NZ elections this weekend, I hope so. If not I may phone home. Frequently.
