THE JOYS OF OWNING A COMPUTER

I thought I'd get the computer cleaned and scrubbed and whatever else is done to it to make it work a bit faster. I'm already wishing I hadn't bothered! Trip 1 to Haddenham on Monday was to take it in to the firm who advertised their computer services. Later I had a call, would I take in the whatever-you-call the lead which plugs into the wall and links with the computer as their One Suits All lead didn't fit. That was Trip 2. Then Trip 3 was Tuesday to collect and pay. Trip 4 was back to Thame the same day because whatever update/download/new something or other they'd installed didn't allow me to open Organ Grinder's Monkey blog or Life of a Student Photographer blog, nor could I open straight into the Google page (which I prefer to Mozilla Firefox) without multi advert pages coming up. The font had also changed in my emails although Format/Font still said it was what it clearly wasn't. Trip 5, Thursday (today)another trip to collect and bring it home where I find there are still things I don't want which have appeared so I'm busy deleting those. Whatever else turns up I'll leave until my daughter and her partner are over from Holland next week (when it'll be Christmas 2010) and they can put it back how I want it... My printer became defunct last Thursday so Sarah and I went to Argos where I bought an identical one to hers. As we all know, manuals are rubbish, so I have no idea how to scan from the printer to the computer; I've tried but no luck. Sarah's having an end-of-Uni-term in Disneyland with some of her friends - Come Back Sarah.....Grandma needs you!!!. I didn't lay out this post in one great chunk but I can't get it to go into separate pieces, so, sorry for the inconvenience...
