My rant: I'm told after my operation on Tuesday I won't be allowed to lift heavy weights for the next 6 weeks. I now learn that "heavy" means "a kettle full of water". Watering greenhouse and allotment is going to be quite a challenge!

People who,pretend to be interested. They aren't so they pretend to be. Your disinterest is annoying, stop pretending. Be interested or don't be, but don't pretend to be. Ooh I'm sooooooooo mad. Sorry if this is vague, but if I went into detail this rant would be a factual page long! :/

Updated Norton security as usual, first thing. Aaarrrgghhh! It now wants my email to get into Identity Safe (where all my website passwords are), but then says there's no connectivity.

Well, yes there is actually.

So, spent an hour and a half with an online Norton technician remotely fiddling with my computer to get it to work, after having to reboot in safe mode in order to connect to the technician in the first place. He reboots my PC back into normal mode, fiddles again, then reboots again, and then I can't connect to him any more...

....without going back into safe mode, but he can't fix it in safe mode....

Hey, forget it then, I'll just have to try and remember all 64 passwords.

64! how did it get to be that many?

Small nugget of good news - he didn't tell me, but I just found I can access the passwords through the norton site direct. Bit of a faff but at least I can get at them.

Roll on July, when I intend to update to windows 10 and be shut of unsupported xp at last.

I live on my own, so what I eat is my choice only. I've made braised lamb shank a cuppla times and fancied them again for today. The only ones I could find were microwavable precooked in "minted gravy". Sorry, but isn't that roast lamb? Apart from wanting to use my own recipe, I don't like my gravy on my meat and I don't like mint in it. The shops I tried have had them raw before but seem to have stopped stocking them.

I ended up buying a half leg of lamb and using the same recipe as last time.

It's not ready yet but it smells wonderful. Yum. I'll be eating late.

Oh, and I couldn't find strawberries either. They've been selling them all winter.

Snow at the end of April

Sitting in my car in the car park at work, on the end of a row, and someone in a chelsea tractor trying to get round the corner bashes my wing, hesitates a few moments, sees me getting out, and accelerates away out of the car park.

Got his number, off I go to personnel to check his car park pass and get his name. "Sorry, that reg number isn't on our list of cars entitled to park here". Oh gee, great, so what's the point in having a car park pass if any old T D or H can come in driving whatever they want, and take up our parking spaces then?

If the car is there tomorrow, he's going to find a Hellcat on his running board!!!

Tenants AGAIN! Just how many times do you have to be told DO NOT block the grill that supplies air to your back boiler you put yourself in mortal danger.

Suppose you'll moan like heck now we have disconnected your gas supply. Wait till you find out I have reported you to the HSE for illegal gas works.
