Hang On A Minute!


My new router arrived today, and I'm using it right now you'll be pleased to here. I was intending to set the kids laptops up on a wireless network, but there seems to have been a hitch there, which I can't see a way around without purchasing a USB wireless adaptor for my own pc. You don't need to know about that though, as it's just one of these things that the ISP forces me to endure.

Many months ago I mentioned the possibility of my acquiring a digital camera, in order to "sex up" this blog, like some secret government dossier about WMD's. Well, that was put on the back-burner for some reason which I can't recall, but now it's back on the table! It has been resurrected like some sort of messiah. Only, don't expect any miracles, even if I do get one. Let's just say that some family member was unexpectedly generous to me this Christmas time. That generosity will not go unrewarded, the images provided for this blog will be sufficiently rewarding as a visual feast much akin to a roman banquet.

It's not all good though, my car battery is flat again, and that's rather disturbing. I only charged it up the other day. It has been under-used this week, but I hope it's not a bad omen. I might have to buy another car if things don't look up. Let's just say that the battery is the tip of the iceberg if I'm honest. With an MOT due in March, at which time I will be totally reliant upon ownership of fully functioning a motor vehicle, I will have to have a car no matter what!
