Apologies everyone! (aka The week from hell!) -

First of all apologies for thanking those that wished me a Happy Birthday, & secondly happy belated birthday to those that I have missed over the last week (Super Sk

.
However I have a good reason, honest!
For the last 10 days so have been off work due to a combination of holiday & illness, so haven't been able to get online at work.
Went out last Monday to buy a new Apple mac to replace my old Windows 98, wind up PC, but couldn't due to fact my credit card expired at the end of Oct & I hadn't had a replacement. My PC knowing that it was going to be unloved then chose monday evening to die (out of spite, I'm sure!)!!
Then on Friday at 3am was advised by police to be evacuated due to the flood warnings (I'm sure you saw on Sky news)! Priorities were sorted, as I live in a bungalow (all adidas shoes & boxes were placed on wardrobes, out of reach of any possible water!).
So now I'm at work I will be using the internet here, until hopefully later in the week, I get to buy my Mac. But am glad to be back!
I'll tell you what you what, you don't half miss the 'net when you haven't got it!

Am lovin' the mac so far!
Just getting used to the differences, after about 10 years of Windows!
I can see myself having loads of useless Widgets!!

It's all worth it though, Macs are so much nicer to use IMO, it's a pity most people learn PC, as Macs seem to be a lot more intuitive
