… sitting at home with a laptop with a failed hard drive that doesn’t work. <\/p>\n
And am I downhearted? No!!!! <\/p>\n
Because I have another laptop with half a screen and half a keyboard to keep me going. And this just shows the beauty of a little program like Note Tab, where you can create your own library of regularly-used text and click on the library entry with the mouse to insert it in the text that you are writing.<\/p>\n
So once you have set up your own alphabet library, using copy-paste from work that you have done before, you can type all kinds of lengthy documents using just a mouse (and if your mouse packs up, you can plug in an external one).<\/p>\n
As for the cracked screen, then an old external screen from a desktop machine works fine, although by manoeuvring your work around to good bits of the screen, even that is not essential. And that’s how I’m working even as we speak<\/p>\n
So you see, we’re still here and still churning out the rubbish. It’ll take more than a mere damaged computer to put a stop to me.<\/p>\n
What did however put a stop to me was the phone, so at least I know that that is now working again. Terry is stuck for a cement mixer and seeing as how the one that I have is his old one, he wanted to know if he could borrow it. Well, I’m not likely to be using it for quite a while yet, so he came round to pick it up and we had quite a chat.<\/p>\n
Then I went back and cracked on with the work.<\/p>\n
And until about midnight, that’s exactly what I did too. All of the blog is now up-to-date and tomorrow, once I’ve taken Caliburn for his annual check-up, I’ll start on the radio programmes.<\/p>\n
Shame that I lost them in my hard-drive crash, but there you go. <\/p>\n
