My 7 year old PC has sighed and rolled over. I am getting quotes for its successor meanwhile I am using M's.
I will be looking in on borrowed time!!

Alas ! RIP Richard's Computer. No doubt you did a good job in your brief time with us,stoically fending off the continual bashing of your keys by Richard's flying digits as they sought to keep up with his erudite racing along brain.
You are going to that wonderful recycling plant in the sky to be reborn again. As Arnie said "I'll be back ! "
Here's a little tribute.

Re: Awol
What a schermozzle! Hard disc crashed and backup portable disc did not properly record backup. Lost the lot but my trusty tech guru did manage to salvage Win 10 onto a new hard disc. Lost all emails and please would those who have my email address kindly send me an email for my address book.
Being a bower bird, as we call hoarders out here, thankfully my photo galleries and important files are preserved on portable drives but it has been a long slog sorting it all out. (Not as pretty as they are here but the little beggars love the colour blue and there is a race on every year to net my blueberry bushes Bowerbirds | NSW Environment & Heritage ). Still sorting out my web site engine!!
Anyway, good to be back.
Cheers, Richard
