Morning campers!
Ear update: sent DD1 out for some cerumol ear drops after doing a bit of research on t'interweb last night. Seems to have done the trick! It does stink a bit though!
Off today and tv man is coming to put wonky tv on straight....it will feel strange not having to watch tv at an angle!
OH should be on his way back from America - the only communication I have had from him since he went is 'can you top my phone up, golf is great'. grrrr
and he is back to work tomorrow so i am sure he will just be back to his normal stressed self within 24 hours (along with jet lag).
:grouphug: for everyone...

Morning everyone. Glad to hear the ear is better Sammy, and I hope everyone has a better day today. I'm up an hour earlier than usual :eek: though I think that may be because it's payday and I'm off to get something nice for breakfast on the way to work

Morning Lovely Peeps
Glad you can hear again Sammy:D
You get something lovely Squirrel.....what do you think you might have? (as louise sits eating toast made from Nimble which is like eating fresh air):rolleyes:
I really was dark when I got up this morning and its windy and freezing outside just realised that the clocks go back this weekend too......I hate getting up for work in the winter Brrrrrrrrr.
Have a good day everyone:jBut these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.0 -
Hi folks
glad your ear is a bit better now Sammy. RS - enjoy your 'something nice' for breakfast. Louise - thanks for depresssing me about the clocks going back this weekend. Only good thing about that is the extra hour we get in bed on Sunday morning!
Went to the computer repair shop last night and found out my hard drive is fooked and all the data is lost
Will cost £100 to replace hard drive (was 320 something but am getting 500 something put it). All my pictures are lost, my College work from a couple of years ago - everything. Guess what I'm buying today - some CDs to back everything up from now on. I know it's a bit late but at least if it happens again I'll have some things backed up. Worst is knowing that all my passwords are lost so I'm going to have to guess them! Thank goodness my MSE password is simple!

Hi Cat
That has happened to me in the past. I now have an external hard drive that we back everything up to (they aren't too expensive now) and also upload all my pics to www.adrive.com - its a free online backup facility...
And i had porridge for breakfast. :rolleyes:Quality is doing something right when no one is looking - Henry Ford

They're going down SLOWLY but at least when I bring a box to work I know I'll actually eat breakfast (can't eat first thing in the morning but two hours later I'm ravenous)
