I am going to get a spare Sue. Husband asked if I wanted a laptop for Christmas and I did not think I could justify this so did not get one. We couldn't get one last week, because techie son will be able to talk husband around to get a better one than he had in mind. I have had to teach my son about reverse psychology and choosing the right moment.

Get a Mac if you can they don't suffer the same as windows based PCs, we've had our Mac for 10 years and its still running fine (although alittle slow compared to the new models). I have a net book on windows 7 also, had it since Xmas and have had that many problems with it .

I will just leave it up to my son Floydie. He might even get a new one and give me his old one. He takes such good care of his things it would be fine by me.

I don't know what to say. I did not think I would be missed and I am really touched. The computer kept slowing down to the point where it would only work in safe mode until stopping altogether, and with techie son in India, we had to call up a computer expert. He thought he would fix it here, but then it had to go away and after testing with a hard drive he had at his home, found this was the problem and ordered one. He left it running today, went for lunch, and on his return, it had all stopped again, so it could be motherboard as well. He spoke to son in India and they worked some things out. Meantime, this computer is his spare. My withdrawal symptoms were terrible. Television is so pathetic at present, and husband just watches his old films usually. Thanks for your comments, funny, cheeky and all sorts. I am glad to be back. And we are glad to have you back Cherry, the forum isn't the same when your away

Yes, you were well and truly missed Jen. I thought of giving you a call but didn't manage to find your number. Takes a bit of catching up when you are gone for a while. OH got a new laptop and I think I prefer using a mouse rather than that scrolly thing but I guess you get used to it after a while. good to see you back.

Thankyou everyone. I would very much like to have had some phone calls from anyone on the forum. I see Tel thought about it and I was very close to calling him. Sweetpea, we oldies, sorry Esther (about the old), go back a long way and are a little more important than cyber buddies.

Flattery will get you nowhere. I have noticed that each person on this forum is an expert in some part of gardening and therefore everyone has something to contribute. I am now interested in cactus which I ignored before. So it goes on...
