Wednesday 19th June 2013 – NOW THAT THIS RUBBISH …

… is right up to date, I can sit back and concentrate on other things.

Not the first of which being to try to connect Cécile to the internet.

My well-travelled and well-battered notebook connects fine to the wireless but Cécile’s expensive machine can’t connect to the wi-fi at all (and neither can many others of.her model of laptop if the plaintive pleas from all over the internet are anything to go by).

She has an ethernet connection though and she’ll just have to learn to cope with that for now and look for the USB wi-fi aerial that I gave her ages ago that I bought when I was having similar problems with an older machine.

We’ve had endless visits too – the physiotherapist, the doctor, Cécile’s cousin and so on, and in view of the dreadful weather we spent most of the afternoon playing parlour games and cards.

We did make it out for an hour or so later in the evening in between the showers but we aren’t holding our breath for another similar window of opportunity.

This has probably been the quietest day of my stay here so far, and easily the worst of a very poor week or two.

Whatever happened to summer?
