Finally the Bod from IT has been and replaced my work PC!

He came on Thursday when I was out of the office and he was only two weeks late, but beggars can’t be choosers or whatever.

I now no longer have time to go make a coffee, have the morning pony and finish reading the Metro between signing in and the PC being ready to go – which is a bit of a culture shock, and it still wont upload windows explorer 8 so I will continue to get that message from blog about not being supported every time I log on. I know, before you techy geeks start with your “load up Firefox then!” but this is a WORK pc and Weird Inc. has structures in place to make sure our IT stays back in the dark ages for as long as possible. Firefox is equal to heresy round here and talk of it could get you burnt at the stake for witchcraft.

Among all the taking Sarah for horse riding lessons and stuff this weekend I got to pop some stuff over to the flat – Sarah wanted to come and see her newly constructed bed and try it out.

When we walked in I was very pleased to note that it was decidedly toasty in there, as opposed to the normal chill that greets you. This is because I have worked out how to use that most mysterious of heating systems THE NIGHT STORAGE HEATER!

And also because I managed to change the fuse for the heater in the hall, which was doing nothing but steadfastly remaining cold and sulking. So cold weather this Xmas holds no fear for me as Sarah and I will be snug as two invertebrates in a woven floor covering.

So now I really should get on with yet another re-write of my CV seeing as I have the speedy new computer, but the closer I get to the end of writing this post and starting said task, the heavier the weight of “meh” seems to get on my shoulders.

I suppose I could change the background colours on my desktop to something less lurid, the lime green I have chosen is clashing rather nicely with the purple dialogue boxes but I fear for my retinas.

Have a good day people.
