Robin
Just a quick post. Number Two son has been called in to work early so I want to squeeze a post in before going out.
I also have to make tea. This is potato wedges, veggie burgers and beans, rather than the comforting beverage. It’s just a modern twist on the old favourite – burger, beans and chips. We are, as you can probably guess, not familiar with the concept of fine dining. On the other hand, I’ve never been mistaken for a bag of bones.
I had a strange experience with the printer at work yesterday. It refused to connect to my computer. Everyone else could connect with no problem. Eddie printed out the compliments slips I needed and a while later Mark printed out two invoices.
After half an hour of messing about unsuccessfully, including restarting, reloading and reswearing, I gave up, got back to work and decided to restart the router at the end of the day. I thought the end of the day would be a good time, as it would, the way my luck was going, probably wreck our entire network.
A couple of hours later the printer chugged into life and disgorged two pages of printing. Fortunately I’d cancelled the other print jobs that had failed or I’d probably have ended up knee deep in paper.
I haven’t a clue why it suddenly started working.
When we were finishing, I passed Mark his invoices. He was surprised. He’d forgotten all about them because they were part of a job he’d tried to print 12 days previously. Yes, twelve days! Printers truly are a mystery…
Your tea sounds right up my alley. Most of the meals Clif and I eat are exactly like that: simple, flavorful, tasty. A terrific trio.
I’m going to start making my own veggie burgers again. Bought ones are simpler but a bit small. π
Homemade ones are tastier, but sometimes packaged food fits better with busy schedules.
That is true. You need some ice cream along with the fibre and tofu. π
Yup.

There was a robin in my garden today. Arenβt they cheery souls to see!
Yes, and noisy. π
Really? Iβve not heard the robin(s) in the garden, just seen them.
It’s probably about territory or attracting mates. Your robin may not need to do any of this,
Okay, I see.
They are still good company – much more so than a dunnock or a blackbird.
Oh, I think they are all great π

Electronic invoicing is the solution!
We’re only just moving into the 1990s – it’s unlike;y the 21st century will play much part in our business! π
Our printer at home has a mind of its own too.
π
I think it is a case of digital daemons. π
There’s a book title in there somewhere…
Regarding printers, you never spoke a truer word.
I wonder whether they are the result of a group of software designers having a drunken conversation…
