Technology ?

I love it, don't you ?

 

What I really want to know is, why does my computer freeze when it's 20 deg in the house ?  Why has it just taken 10 mins. to write the word " why ". Could it be that the cat has just stomped over the keyboard ? Why when I am halfway through watching an interesting (or as my wife points out, interesting to me) Youtube video is it that my computer decides to shut down completely with that funny noise that always accompanies it? How come since we bought a new Canon printer and I installed all the software ( three quarters of it being completely superfluous  to requirements ) do I have to wait to use the computer until the program deems it is ready to start printing, although I don't need to print ?

I think it's probably not enough steam pressure, I have in the past of course resorted to the old time recipe of  the cup of coffee poured gently over the keyboard, but nothing seems to work !!

 

By now, you have probably guessed that I am passed the age of retirement, reason and caring what people think and that I don't have anything better to do than complain, but, believe it or not, I am not always like that. Sometimes I do interesting things due to the fact I have more time on my hands. Like just like the other day, when I looked up the word "TRUMP" in the Oxford English dictionary, apparently it means "to break wind audibly" soooooooooooooo, so that's basically a noisy fart,  I thought that quite appropriate  and topical !! I am sorry to say, that I just don't understand the mentality of some people that let money cloud their better judgement and take priority over common sense

 

That was the thought for the day ! now, back to the studio. Let me introduce you to some of my friends

 

bottoms up girls here comes the cockerel

 

 

I do like photos, don't you?  My friends live down the bottom of the garden and are relatively young due to the fact that a bloody dog (don't like dogs, or is it the thought of walking around with a plastic bag full of dog shit in my pocket that I don't like) killed my last friends and I bought these at the end of August, so they are not laying yet, they scare the living daylights out of my cats and nearly trample me to death when I feed them in the mornings. Amazing what amuses us retired folk !! 

The French seem to like their dogs, particularly the fierce looking loud noisy type that jump out at you as you are quietly cycling down those lovely rural roads that we have here.

 

More friends and enemies, pastimes, hobbies and rubbish in the next instalment of the story of everyday folk in the middle of bloody nowhere, coming to a computer near you (unless it's like mine) soon.
