I'm back online with a new computer & new OS, having abandoned pc's for Apple - my monitor died early this month & as my pc was tottering on the brink of oblivion anyway I decided to replace the whole lot. Though I had been considering getting a 'Mac' I was undecided on whether to get one this time or to stick with pc -...

I just bought a bread machine! The local hardware shop was selling the very model I was eyeing up a year ago - at 90 less than it was then: I paid 50. It was probably marked down to make way for a new model but it's still a bargain. Haven't used it yet but if you hear reports on the news of a strange...

I'll be watching the news for said doughy mass.
I'm a huge Thin Lizzy fan, what is you favourite song(s) and album? For me the album would be Jailbreak, the song is a whole lot tougher to choose, I can narrow it down to three but that's it: It's Getting Dangerous, Got to Give It Up, and Philomena. All three get me pretty choked up.

It isn't my computer that needs more memory - it's me. I have mislaid the packet of shortbread biscuits I bought only this morning & was looking forward to scoffing whilst tapping away. 
How the hell could I lose something as important as that?
Well at least (or 'at last' even - given my usual dearth of stuff to put on here) it has given...

If you get any clues as to the whereabouts of your missing socks, please let me know. I am missing a few hundred single socks that are dearly missed by their mate, and me. They may travel with other groups of socks, not that I'm suggesting that ours are together but yours may have word on where mine may be at.
Thanks for your help in this matter.

I just wrote a few lines that looked like crap when I read it back so I deleted it. Maybe something more interesting will come to mind later.
A woman I've recently been in touch with for the first time since school has just been told her father has terminal cancer. Whatever words you can think of at moments like those are inadequate. I dread losing my parents but can barely imagine the feeling of facing it as a cold fact, sooner rather than later.

Hardly any time online since last Sat. The outside world keeps interfering. Things like work. Eating. Shopping. Sleeping.
Memo to self. When using a mop bucket with spring loaded wringer the handle hits you straight in the nuts if you let go. Don't do that again

Have just heard on the news that an historic bridge by Brunel has been discovered just outside Paddington station, encased within a bridge built later, & was nearly destroyed along with the bridge surrounding it. Ok so it wasn't visible, but how can you lose a bridge? .. "Hey has anyone seen our bridge? It was here last time we looked" ..

I guess you might say it was both. When I see something like that I simply MUST find out more. So when I do, I like to share. The link was really intended for others, since you already know about it, but sadly... Oh well. I'm just curious about curious stuff, especially when it has something to do with art, and bridges are partly art, aren't they?

Worse, thanks for asking though 
Summer colds are the worst, yet I wish that's what I had, can't wait for summer!

The Dead Boys are not together anymore, sadly, Stiv Bators died a number of years back. Again, I never saw them in concert but I did pass them in the street, which was a big thrill for me at the time!
