Benben slinks in feeling a bit fragile ....



We had a fab night last night, far far too much alcohol was consumed and I have spent three hours this morning with my head down the loo
However, I am finally feeling human again!
Todays plan (or whats left of the day), involves doing absolutely nothing other than the ironing and helping ds with his homework when he gets home this afternoon
Spends last night were about £30.Mortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

Last night my laptop was tootling along nicely then it got really really hot, smelt like germolene :eek: made a funny sound and switched itself off
Yet another cable has had it and this time I've decided to cut my losses and ditch it completely, so tonight I have been and bought myself a new laptop :eek: Certainly wasn't part of the plan this month, but for the amount I use it Iit is the one luxury I allow myself no matter what. So tonight is all about setting it up, getting stuff installed all over again :cool: I've installed Norton so far and am quite impressed I've managed to get online already, although its not wirelessly yet as I can't remember where I wrote down the key number for the wireless connection 

So £400 spent today that definitely isn't in the budget, but *if* the maintenance money comes in next week then that willl nearly cover it. If not then I will take the money out of an isa for it instead.Mortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

Well I would look on the purchase like this......Its an income generator for Matched Bets etc so with that in mind its a necessary investment in your mortgage free mission:)But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.0

Hmm, is not going too well so far ... can't remember the password for my wireless router and cant find the installation stuff for it if I reset it, so I am not yet wireless ... also need to find some way of getting my docs / photos etc off the old laptop, both recently bought cables are fried
need to see if I can get an external hard drive and save stuff onto it, but theres only about 15 mins of battery left on the old one, maybe I can remove the hard drive and do it that way, but I'm rubbish with computers
.... emails were set up and working but now don't seem to be, grrrr!!!! Mortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

Ask on the Techie Board they will be able to help you I'm sure. Good luck sorting it out.0

Okay, I've figured out how to set google as my default search engine and I've also got the emails working again
A long way to go still, but I'm getting there
