the computer is in intensive care

Our computer is close to expiring....... We have an external hard drive which last weekend i was going to load all my photographs, music and other documents on to just in case there was ever a problem with the main computer..... too late. Bruce is hoping to do something to retrive all my docs etc but not until next week........................when he is on leave. We were supposed to be having a staycation and do things like visit Stonehenge, Chedder Gorge and other tourist attractions as we should be moving next year (only 10 1/2 months left here now) and these things should be done.
So at the moment we are using the laptop. The decision we have almost made is do we now make the change to an Apple Mac or stay as we are, I opt for the Apple, but, there is more than me to consider, Jake will be coming home from school at half term holidays with prep-can that be done on an apple and taken back to school.... can I still use picasa and lots of other things are going through our heads.
Meanwhile, I begin the marathon of name tape sewing in preparation for Jake going back to school,
the summer holidays go by so quickly....................................... I think that will be the sum total of my craft at the moment, the boy has changed his mind about colours for his quilt (again!!) So he has until tomorrow to make up his mind then I choose. I thought pink, purple with lime green ;-))))))

Hello. Thank you for leaving a comment on my blog. I have enjoyed reading quite a few of your posts from which I deduce that Jake is at a boarding school a long way form your home; that you are soon to be moving elsewhere and that you like a lot of the same places and things as I do.Including Loch Fyne, and Yorkshire!
your comment on cause and effect was very welcome. I can't reply directly to you unless you add an e mail address to your profile.
