Thursday & Friday..........

Dell boy was delivered Thursday at 10 o'c, all within 48 hours, impressive! It stayed in the box most of the day, just too much to do. Cag wanted a trip to the garden centre, to buy another Maasai figurine, a sort of Christmas present from her to her. I bought some glitter for the sprigs of holly decorations.

I did get around to taking a closer look during the evening and it's a gem. A Latitude 630, 2.2 dual core, 2gb ram, 120 rom....... with all the trimmings. And a touch pad that behaves as you would expect it too, not just at it's own whim.

So yesterday and today has been 'playtime'. Loading the minimum of programmes and taking out those I shall never use. Making new files ready to transfer data from the Toshiba and clearing out a load of rubbish.

I've even had a request for the Toshiba. My brother-in-law is interested and it would probably suit him as he always uses a mouse so wouldn't have touch pad trouble....... hopefully.

I did manage to get an hour or so in the garden this afternoon, to clear up the results of the recent gales and to cut back plants ready for over wintering. It was .............. bracing............ Brrrrrrrrr!!
