TECHNOPHOBE STRIKES AGAIN







I bit the bullet this morning (not literally but you know what I mean) and downloaded Skype and ordered a nice headset and mic. I have paid for a year's worth of subs for the whole of the world which has cost me £81.48 but now I can have free calls. I did pay for some credit which cost me £10 so that I could get started straightaway. I am really surprised that I managed to follow the instructions without making a hash of things.


I then somehow managed to mess up my business email address and go so mad that I deleted it, then I couldnt log in to virgin media because my birth date doesnt match their records..tut so half an hour later I managed to speak to a nice man in Wales who talked me through what I had to do to reset the password and sort out my emails - now I am working again. I am thinking that I really must set up a pop3 account so that my business email looks as though it comes from the business as opposed to some eejit at blueyonder.


My new shoes arrived today - so now I shall have to get used to ramming my feet into proper shoes as opposed to the crocs that I have lived in all summer. My new glasses on the other hand are still not ready and the liars at the manufacturers have now said that the lenses are being coated whereas last Wednesday they were being despatched. It seems that they may be ready for me to collect on Thursday of this week. It is such a damned inconvience as I cannot see so can't drive, I get blinding headaches because of eye strain and I just feel like a moody mare.

I am going to try something now - that is to load some pictures - whoo hoo. Now don't get too excited - they're just pictures of the car that I sponsored for a local charity (I won't be sponsoring them again or doing any work for them - I shall be looking for a different charity to support). Well I did say that I was a technophobe - the pics have been uploaded but not where I wanted them to be...oh well, its a start I guess.
