It is always galling when such small irritants seem to take over from the really good parts of a holiday.<br /><br />I'm glad you're back on line anyway, and I agree, computers do sulk, and also will deliberately slow down the moment you want something done in a hurry, like print off something, and everything just seizes up and grunts to a halt for an hour or so.Sen.

Anything liquid over 100ml is too big, so you can't take it". <br />So it's alright if I bring ten 100ml jars but not one of 300ml then? <br />"Rules says it's too big so you can't take it". <br /><br />Not even though just inside the duty free zone is exactly the same product in even larger jars which can of course be bought and carried in hand luggage. The world really has gone quite mad and unthinking jobsworths do nothing to help remedy the insanity.<br /><br />Then when I got home the comp, which must have been secretly monitoring this site in our absence, wouldn't start. It switched on ok and then nothing. We tried for a couple of hours to see if the fault would clear, but no luck. So I took it to my tame comp shop this morning where the young lad plugged it in and (naturally) it started perfectly first time! No messages about Windows recovering from serious errors, being hit with a blunt instrument or even having the wrong kind of leaves in the hard disc etc. The lad gave me a pitying look, charged me a few bob for his trouble, and said try plugging it into a different socket". <br /><br />So I brought it home again, joined it up and all is tickety boo again. My conclusion is that this machine was sulking because we did not take it with us on our travels.

The computer isn't much good either.lilithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05011676751221508167noreply@blogger.com
