Good to hear Arena, there's a foreign post here somewhere. We get lots of bot postings. If you see one just ignore it. They're harmless and I delete them as soon as I see them.

After having to get into W 10 to get my e-mails (and a pooter mender to re-instal the damn thing) the update includes other outfits that windoze has absorbed. i.e. Chrome and its variants....Nevermind Windowz 11 is already issued to computer menders, to take your money in a few months time. I also found an old Laptop from my working days. It is called an Acer. Not yet dabbled to see if it works.. Do I really want to unearth Nuc-Med/NHS/Loc Gov drivel... etc of my "Working" Life; Or would it make me scream and run.

Maris, one more thing we have in common, we both like a bargain. Well done on getting a good deal. I have to go and lie down now, been taste testing gins at sister's. Can hardly see keys.

Hiya Toots, I love Hampshire. My daughter used to live in Gosport and we spent many happy weeks there in and around Lee on Solent as well. We have more rain today so won't have to water the plants. Had a busy morning, first Tesco then Nero's then Waterstones then WH Smiths the Body Care. Spent a small fortunes in town. Must prepare todays dinner now. yes, I love Hampshire too. I worked in Bishops Waltham for nearly 19 years and love the place.

I remember buying Clarkes shoes from their outlet there and went over to the Isle of Wight on the ferry too. We had days out in Bournemouth and Southampton.

I have a Windows 10 laptop and it always rejects any attempt at installation of Chrome...

I have lots of aches and pains this morning. From what I remember, I was playing football with my sister's granddaughter yesterday. I can't believe I was so foolish. It hasn't done my bones any good. The risk of falling would usually stop me from doing something so silly. Anyway, it's done now. I can't believe my daughter, or sister, didn't stop me. I seem to remember, the Hibiscus gin was delicious. I brought a couple of bottles of it home. Suffice to say, it was a Birthday none of us will forget. I had my nephews 3D head set on, I remember that. He had put an app of Dinosaurs on it. A huge Brachiosaurus woke up and spotted me and came straight towards me. I jumped up and squealed. It put it's eye right by my face. The size of it was mind blowing. It's no wonder these head sets are getting popular, you really feel as if you are there.

The key phrase there "...from what I remember" 😆 You're brave putting on that headset! I would NEVER do that! Too scary!
