Today the phrase, ‘Taken aback’ means to be surprised unexpectedly, but it comes from the days of sail and refers to a sudden change of wind pressing the sails against the masts and spars, in this state the ship was ‘Taken aback’. Not a good position for a man o’war!

@OpenreachHelp Yes no internet or phone for around 2 hours… resulting in me missing important live training. Several residents in the area are not happy. If we had been pre-notified we could have made arrangements.
