As incredible as it may seem I actually left the house a couple of weeks ago. First time since March and I went to a cat show.

Not really a good idea, I’m still suffering for it now, but I managed to get talked into going so I could take some photos.

And it was nice to get out of the house.

Only down side, when you’re doing someone a favour and you send them the photos…

Have you ever seen those Fisher Spacepen’s?

I don’t know about you, but I used to love them… they were small, cute… Ermm… I mean practical And best of all, you could use them in space, underwater, and in extreme temperatures.

It was funny, when I was at school I always used to like to have a Fisher Spacepen in my bag for emergencies. Of course, being small, cute and functional, I only ever had the pen for a couple of weeks. I’d start the new school year with a brand new Spacepen, then within the first two weeks it had been stolen.

Woot!

I’ve finally got my computer back… It’s only taken them nearly 3 weeks and me making about 50 phone calls to get it sorted… But the main thing is that it’s back.

Now just two or three days of reinstalling to do and I’ll have a working computer and I can finally start doing things again.

Well it’s been one of those weeks last week…

First the laptop died on my on Monday, the hard drive suffered a fatal head crash and the memory is fried. No clue how either happened, but there we go.

It was collected for repair on Tuesday and should be back in 5 working days (which would be tomorrow), but when I called them on Friday, it still hadn’t even been assigned to an engineer, so that’s not looking promising.

Then on Tuesday I discovered that the unstable internet connection I’ve had for the past 2 weeks is because my router had shorted out.
