    Aloha everyone,

    I've just been chatting to friends in the U.S. by Skype. Damn clever, these computer thingies! :blue thumb:

    I'll do some mowing when it gets light. My foot has improved a bit so I should be OK :)

    Have a great day :biggrin:

    Aloha!

        Hi Woo,

        There's too many things to get done for people to laze around in bed :snork: So let's get out there and do something! :blue thumb:

        Happiness is always an inside job. :heehee:

            Morning all

            It's promising to be a scorcher here today so I should get my grass cut early too. Not this early though, might wake the dogs up :snork:

            Glad you got your pc problems sorted Woo. I don't like 8.1 but haven't had any problems with it :fingers crossed:

            Hope everyone is well and the sun shines on you all.

                Good Morning everyone,

                I keep getting those calls from some tech company that tells me I have problems with my computer. I'm afraid I was not very ladylike the last time I got one. He must have got the message as he has not been back!

                Glad you are all sorted WOO, must have missed that somewhere along the line. I have 8.1 on my new laptop but seeing as I never use it, it doesn't matter too much.

                Have a good day everyone, God bless.:wub2:

                    I bought some more plants yesterday while out shopping:rolleyespink: why do I do these things:doh: I'll be spending half the day wondering where I'm going to plant them:rolleyespink:

                    No sunshine as yet,but very still and warm out there:thumbsup:

                    Wishing everyone well,take it easy and take care everyone:SUNsmile:

                      I received another unsolicited call yesterday from Brighter Home Solutions. The object of the call was to find out whether I wanted improvements to my home and they would send free vouchers. They said that they had just opened a new showroom in my area (true) and that they are calling me back because I had shown an interest last year when I heard they were going to open (untrue).

                      I told him that wasn't true and he just carried on with his patter. So I interrupted him and asked him if he had listened to what I said. He said he had heard me but realised that people don't remember calls from a year ago. I said that I remember that I didn't express an interest and replied that nobody remembers all their phone calls.

                      He was a bit taken aback when I said that I do and that I have an eidetic memory. :heehee: I then added that I remember the call quite clearly and that it wasn't him that spoke to me and that I had caught out the original caller in four lies. I told him that I also remembered telling them not to call me again.

                      He then started trying to explain what brilliant deals they had and so I asked him if English was a foreign language for him (he was definitely English). His reply was "I don't understand what you're asking!" So I said "Ah! I thought you didn't understand English properly." He said "Of course I do, I'm English". To which I replied "So what part of don't call me didn't you understand?" He hung up!!
