Right oh – here we go again.

Yeah I know I am such a slack blogger. But I have been off line the last few days cos of my computer dying. But I now have a nice new shiny black one and am now back online yay. That was such a drama but got there in the end. I tried connecting my broadband up myself and it wouldn’t work so rang the xtra help desk and got an Indian man who was very hard to understand which was not good to start with when I am trying to get a comp working. So after struggling with him for an hour he told me that my installation disc was too old and he would send me a new one and it would be here in a couple of days. So disc turned up today and I pop it in the drive and proceed to install broadband. Well after fluffing round for ages it wouldn’t work still – so back onto xtra and wouldn’t you know it I got the same hard to understand Indian man – argh. So going thru all the steps with him once again and him telling me that I had to use the blue cord (which I never needed to use on the old comp) and me telling him that it wouldn’t fit – cos believe me I had tried to plug it in – well we argued for at least an hour about this damn blue plug needing to fit in the hard drive. In the end he rold me that I should just get someone else to look at it or else I would need to buy a new cable which would be the same as the one I already had – doh! So anyway I get off the phone and said to Mum who was here listening the whole time – “see this blue plug? you try it in this hole and tell me it doesn’t fit – only to find that oh dear – oops – it did fit – rofl. Oh yeah baby blonde day for sure. But afterall that I am online and back in touch with the world.

Now if I should have your email addy please let me know cos I haven’t been able to transfer them over – thanks for that.

And now that my computer is so lovely and new I can go visiting blogs and stuff cos I can see everything in lovely colour instead of the horrible green I had – ugh.

All is well otherwise – no more hospital visits for me – good news.

My car decided to crap out on me today which was not good – especially so close to Christmas and just after having shelled out for the comp. But oh well – gotta have a car. So it is in the garage overnight getting a radiator flush and other bits and a service. Got to use the AA though which is what I pay for so glad that I belong to them and can get them to come tell me what to do cos I know nothing bout cars lol.

Anyway folks that is me again and hoping to be in touch with your blogs over the next few days.

Take care
