I’ve gone back to using the netbook. It may be slow but I can use it while I sit in front of the TV and talk to Julia. I think I finally have the hang of this multi-tasking thing.
It won’t be a regular return, as it’s already irritating me by lagging and locking up.
Apart from the time element, this also makes me feel less like writing and less like posting photos.
However, it does leave more time for tea and Julia.
This, in turn, means Julia is able to discuss my character faults in greater detail.
The actual benefits of multi-tasking are, I feel, debatable.
Today I have consumed oranges, an apple, blueberries, raspberries, tomato, onion and courgettes. I am therefore healthy, virtuous and in no danger of constipation. I did fit in a bowl of cereal, a small pork pie, a cheese cob and a pork chop too, so there’s still some work to do on my diet. And a doughnut and a piece of fudge. That’s the trouble with being virtuous, there’s always a bit of sugar lurking about, ready to throw itself down your throat.
Nothing exciting happened today. We had a few strange questions via eBay this morning, which took half an hour to answer tactfully.
I’m not sure if it’s actually confirmed by legislation but it does seem to be a widely accepted there is a basic human right to be a gibbering idiot, so you have to be polite.
It’s strange how eBay has become the international gathering place for such people. You’d think that people who were that stupid wouldn’t be able to operate a computer.
It seems that being able to operate a computer or a smart phone is a requisite for being stupid. You just have to look at any comment thread on a news or sports story to see that.
WordPress comments are of course entirely different.
Yes, after years of avoiding those threads I’d forgotten how bad they could be.
WordPress comments, as you rightly point out, are entirely different. People on WordPress can spell, for one thing.
I am a huge fan of multi-tasking and combining. Need to do these things more than ever now that I am older and slower.
Not sure whether to agree or not, it’s true but agreeing may be seen as saying you are old and slow…
Ah, a veritable dilemma! 🙂
But I am old and slow. 😉
I know what you mean. 🙁
During the resent rain I’ve been chasing snails in the garden – unlike previous years, I am no longer confident of catching them.
How lazy can you get – going back to netbook just so you can lounge on the sofa
🙂 I like to think I work hard at my indolence.

It is the season for fresh fruits and vegetables. 🙂
It’s mainly the season for uncontrolled courgette/zucchini production round here! We have never quite mastered the art of planning. 🙂
