In the interests of taking the Pain out of PC and joining everyone else in the 21st Century, I have acquired a new computer.
However, in my brave and valiant attempt to get this wonderful, slick, efficient, bright, shiny piece of machinery onto my wireless network and the internet, I seem to have managed to sever all home contact with the outside world.
Yes, I am afraid that the net result of two evenings of ORK IT ineptitude is that the grubby, black old dinosaur and the sparkly new silver toy, sit - side by side - in a gentle fan whirring of self absorbed yet companionable, almost-silence. They are like old friends, sitting in a lounge area, reading newspapers - quite happy to sit there, ignoring both each other and the outside world. Oblivious to what is going on around them.
Marvelous. For them. I am going up the wall. [said through gritted teeth]
I have even offered to cook for a colleague (and his two children), in a clear and blatent attempt to lure an IT expert around to my home to sort out my self inflicted, IT mess. Funnily enough, it's Christmas and he's busy.
So things are not looking good on the IT front.
Mind you, after the item that I knitted earlier this week, you might be grateful that I do not really have any sensible way to blog. It's a scarf for a 7 year old. I'm thinking of calling it 'Good Karma, Barbie Basic'. It's bright and it is made with plastic yarn. It's no eco-friendly number - so why the good karma?

Carl can come around and sort it if you like. We are out for dinner tonight. He won't mind. Give us a call and we will sort something out. He is my IT guru at the moment after sorting out all our stuff this week after the hard drive died. All back to normal minus some of my photos (I will be able to recover from flickr but not at same res.) Some stuff is still lurking in strange places on the back up.
