The patient returns

People might be wondering where i’ve been the last few days.

It isn’t the fact i’ve fallen out with facebook or indeed, wordpress (NOOOO! 🙂 ) – my Trusty HP laptop had some serious palpitations in the last 7 days.

As a result, it spent some time in the lab at PC World in Manchester

Managed to keep up via the Android tablet  (pictured) and phone on twitter, but decided to give my laptop a rest during this phase of writing.

The upside ? A much improved patient – not as groggy as the last few weeks

The downside…having to watch windows update install my operating system again (Arrgh!)

UPDATE: Sunday 8th May

The patient is back – in his usual spot.

Old Red (??? must stop calling it that – Old Silver will get jealous!!!) is back on the Desk , and Running Windows 10 – though I had to go through one lengthy process to get it there

There’s now a link to wordpress on my desktop (Nice touch)
