Hello Dhaaarlings...
Finally I'm back on air... It's been a long wait I know and I'm very grateful for your patience... but it has not been without it's traumas darlings let me tell you!
Firstly... the old dinosaur of a computer I had gave up the ghost... not voluntarily but because the parent company in their wisdom decided to cease support to the platform i'd been happily plodding along with for years... Which effectively meant that it no longer recognized the internet connection that had been working perfectly well up to that point.
I then has to wait to replace the computer with a new one, albeit second hand reco notebook... which took some time to procure.
My telco then issued me with a new modum which i'd just managed to set up the week before Easter and while I was still trying to come to terms with driving the new notebook then sent another, different modum for the new faster broadband system and in the process decided to switch off the old internet system and sign us up to a new faster system.
Sadly they decided to do this over the Easter break which meant that all internet connectivity was down including our land line telephones that needed to be switched to the new system remotely. I had to ring the company to arrange this and get talked through the process.
finally all things seem to be up and running again and so I can finally start posting... hopefully a little more frequently than I have been...
Now all I have to do is to work out how to save pictures to the new contraption and then I'll be set!
Till next time darlings...
Bottoms up!
