Love at first site.

β€’43 Replies

We fell in love immediately

As soon as our eyes met

That special day so long ago

I never shall forget.

At first I was so nervous

And didn't know what to do

But once I'd got her loaded

It was obvious that she knew.

I threw caution to the wind

And now would have my way.

It did not take me long to find

That she was game to play.

We surfed around together

As happy as can be

You'd be surprised if I told you

The things she let me see.

But now she's old and very slow

I needed something younger

I'm also fairly old myself

But still retain that hunger.

I keep her quietly sitting here

And see her now and then.

But I've moved from Windows 95

On to Windows 10.

Oh my and I thought I knew exactly who you were rhyming about Mr.D.....I thought it must be your dear,beloved campervan,lol !

Excellent in any case.... Hope you have a good weekend as the weather is supposed to be warming up.

Ah yes! The lovely 'Medi'. 😍 I call her that because her designer Barry Stimpson named her La Meditteranee and that name is displayed all around her. She has an appointment for a full service next week and is waiting for me to do a bit better at my PR classes.

I also had an affair with that hussy '95 all those years ago. Dialup bulleting boards before that too, with the familiar whistling tones of a 14.2 kps modem. Then the WWW started with just 4 of us in Southampton online. Windows ten on my phone (no choice) .Windows 7 & Linux Mint as my mistress, on my desktop.

Memories eh? I loved CompuServe and couldn't believe it when AOL took it over. I always considered CompuServe far the better of the two. When travelling I used to ask "Can I use you phone for a minute please" and whip out my laptop.

Good one Done had a laugh again as I thought it was your furry baby when you just met.

I’ll tell you about when I first met Midge. We picked her up from a farm in Morecombe. The farmer’s wife invited us in for tea and biscuits whilst one of her children went to get the last pup left. Much to my wife’s horror the child came back with it and plonked it on the table, where it promptly peed on my biscuit. That was my Midge and we’ve been friends ever since.

I don't know about double entendre but you had me fooled. When I read 'site' in the title I thought I was about to read a homage to our wonderful Healthunlocked SITE and the first few lines confirmed this. You wily man.

Loved the Midge story too

Best Wishes

Would you like to add a 'd' on the end of move Cap'n?

I would love to do that my eagle eyed friend and I'll add a 's' on the end of Window whilst I'm there. So nice to have you back Margaret, I was becoming unintelligible. πŸ˜€

Hahahaha Windows 95?

Had to ask Tony about Windows? I have an Apple ipad, that's all I know. He tells me that's microsoft, sounds complicated! Good rhyme though! Love Iris x

β€’ in reply toLyd12

In the early days MicroSoft Windows had far more software available for it than Apple so was by far the more popular. Now I use both, my MacBook talks to my iPhone, my iPad my iPod and in fact my Windows 10 desktop, the boundaries have been removed. There are other operating systems, 2greys uses Linux for example.

Passing on your comments to Tony, he s your age group I think, born September 1929. He's talking about the days of 'hard drive' ? now. He s not happy with the computer he has, always talking about changing it, not had it long. Its a Hewlett Packard tablet, that's all I know. x

We are, I was born November 1931. I think if Tony thought back really hard he would be talking about cassette tape storage. Before that when you switched off your computer you lost everything. I've given up trying to keep up with technology, I've got a house full of obsolete gadgets. I can't stop myself buying the latest Kindle versions. I bought the first to save space on my bookshelves and now I have more Kindles than I had books!πŸ˜„
