Up the creek without a paddle

Hi peeps. Guess what has happened, my computer is up the creek, only temporarily thank goodness untill the lovely Mark comes on Wednesday to give it a thorough going over. I had a feeling this might happen, there are a lot of viruses about, and it seems I have picked up a few. Mark will sort it for me, in the meantime I have come into town for a free 30 minutes at the library.

It was all going so well this morning as well. I rang the RAC after receiving their letter telling me my anual subscription is due shortly and they will remove the money from my bank. They have been doing this for 25 years, and a couple of times I have had to ring them when the cost has gone up. This time they want an extra £20, what £20 flippin quid, not on your nellie. After the young man took my details and confirmed it was me, he got my details on the screen. I said they had given me a free At Home service a year ago, does this mean I have now got to pay for it! He said, 'Ah, I see you have been a member since 1986, this means I can offer you the same cover as you had last year at the same price'. Thank you very much says I. Well if you don't ask you don't get. I reckon there will be a lot of people getting rid of their cars, and those that are still driving will be shopping around for their rescue packages, they cannot afford to lose a long standing customer.

I wash my hair more often than I wash my body, and the chore is usually done with my head hanging over the sink. I boil one and a half kettles of water, this is enough to wash and rinse, so when I have finished I have a bowl of cleanish warm water. This morning the kitchen floor needed washing, I don't have a mop and bucket, and I don't buy fancy cleaning liquids or powders. I much prefer the old fashioned method of getting down on my hands and knees with an old rag and giving it some elbow grease. If my face is close to the ground so I can see all the specks of dirt that need to be removed. You could eat a meal off my kitchen floor, that's untill the cats and dogs come paddling through.

I'll maybe pop back tomorrow for another free half hour, and if Mark isn't too shy on Wednesday, I'll take a photo of him so you can see how lovely he is. I am going to be lost tonight with no computer, will try and keep busy with other things. Toodle pip,
