Steph and I spent most of the day (it seems) trying to sort out this wretched dongle, so that I didn't have to use their computer again. Suffice to say that eventually (third attempt) we went into Reading and found a very nice young lady who allowed me to explain with about 6 words, and promptly fixed the whole problem by GIVING me a new SIM card. And here I am ... sitting up in my bed at 7.25 a.m. having spent the past 2 hours catching up on emails etc. If I don't get it done now, I may not get another chance today.
Steph has a Wii. It has a fitness programme on it. I don't need to report that fitness isn't a strong point - but I hadn't realised quite how uncoordinated I am. The plan was that we'd do "about an hour" each day of the three weeks I'm here, in an attempt to lose all that weight I'd gained over recent months. We missed yesterday's attempts and I doubt whether today will be much better. But it was a good idea. It's always a good idea at the time.
The new netbook is a treat! Thank you G and M! Any day now I might even master it sufficiently to put some photos on here. Might even try after this, but hopefully the battery will run out before I get a chance!
It looks like a pleasant day ahead - the weather man suggested 20 degrees yesterday. But the threatened rain we were meant to have didn't eventuate, so time will tell.
Trust you're all faring OK at home - I had two more personal aftershocks yesterday - I'm amazed how long it's taking me to acclimatise. Keep safe, you all! x
