Put pink streaks in my hair . (wow 29 years on and still love them lol due for another set of pink bits at the end of the month :-) )

Apologies for the lack of posts this week. There are a number of factors -

1. I am sure the world is turning faster and the 'authorities' have not put it in the press yet. I get home from work between 18.00 & 19.00 hours.... before I know it it is 22.00 hours. And all I have done in that time is cook tea, wash up, speak to my Mum, walk the dog, put washing in, take washing out etc etc

2. My internet provider is intermittently awful

3. My old boy computer is loosing its virtual memory ... old computer home for this old friend soon I think?... gosh I hope it can't read what I have just written!

4. Lappy top is permanently stuck to teens lap

5. Trying to get ahead of myself at home before I am a one armed bandit for a while (got a letter from the hospital today that says I will probably be in a sling for 6 weeks.. not the 8 weeks that he told me yipeee)

6. Then there are these guys ..... lovely cuddly teddies with tales to tell. Trying to get a bear to stand up in pink satin shoes is not easy and because of 2 & 3 above not been able to download them..... what should take seconds takes ages and I lose patience ... pop along they would love to chat :-)

However, all seems a bit more stable tonight on the PC front ... long may it remain
