Hello Everyone

Had a wonderful time with the old laptop, thought it had taken itself to the big keyboard in the sky and my emails had gone to the place of all bad, evil computers

Yesterday I had, enough of the thing as I was having troubles with all my interactions with the internet and was not getting my posts

.

When I started to dump a large amount of crude more posts came to life and the traitor began to display a dearth of messages and programs that seemed to appear from God only knows, some stuff dating back two months or so that seemed to have been sent to the Bermuda Triangle of electronic messages.

All seemed to have gone pear shaped when the machine was in getting serviced about two month ago, so I will need to have words with those who are supposed to understand all things Laptop.

Sad to say there was a great deal of mail that came to the surface and so I need to say sorry to all those who I did not reply to. The list goes on and on and I have spent most of the day contacting those who I was supposed to contact, Some of the stuff was important and I noticed some stuff from people here and if you expected a reply I am sorry if I did not reply, believe me it was not intentional and I am still wondering where all this missing stuff had taken a Holiday too. All the problems have been a real pain and some of the messages were important to do with voluntary work.

Now I have given this evil machine a solid ticking of and sorted it out, I suppose it is getting old now and I suppose it needed a good cleaning out. It was like peeling an onion I was finding stuff that had been in the computer for four years. So I suppose I will need a new machine

Now I suppose I will need to have words with the Techs and find out what was wrong. One thing the damn thing is working much better now as I was able to get rid of over four hundred entries that should have not been there. I suppose it had suffered a Mental Breakdown and life had been to much for the horror

All the best
