The Ghost Writer has spent all day with his
head stuck in a computer working out why it bleeped at him. It appears that it
does not mean the computer is full of aliens from Mars reaping revenge for
being annoyed again by a large 4X4, more that the computer is a bit unhappy
with the snake that someone posted through the DVD player the day before and it
has shorted out the hard drive. Which might have been shock tested by some
aggressive banging on the table in a vane attempt to remove a snake that had
accidently got stuck in it in the first place. It may have been a cat they
always look innocent when the leave half a thing in the wrong place, anyway the
point is, it was definitely not me. And there are no finger prints because I
was wearing gloves….. The cat was wearing gloves; although so was I that was
just a coincidence……… PHEW that was close.
We have been speaking to
the great electrical man at the end of a phone today, about electrics, we
annoyingly have an intermittent fault that will ping the main trip, sometimes a
few times a day and them not for weeks on end. The result is it makes it very
hard to pin this down (no one has squeezed any bits of snake or newt into any
sockets either so we can’t blame the cat for this one……. OK I did blame the cat
at first but then realized it was not my fault so PHEW.
And now it is getting late
again, so I will need to go. Tomorrow is Monty Show, we used to go to Monty
Show lots but have not been now for a few years and I don’t think we will be
going tomorrow. After a game of Paper, Scissors, Stone I will now be doing some
DIY and working on lights and benches, that is one of the problems with playing
Paper, Scissors, Stone, the consequences can be very practical when you loose……

I was just to ask why would anyone post a snake through the DVD player and then I remembered whose blog I was reading...idiot! Me, not you. ;D
ReplyDeleteOf course it was the cat and not me who did this silly thing. I would not do silly things like this.
DeleteThe ghost writer was given a large number of computers by a college last year to help the charity he works for. He says one of the problems he found was that students had stuffed all sorts of things into the CD/DVD drives. He did not mind too much because this included money ......? He does say though he has not found a snake in any of them yet but in the fullness of time he thinks it may yet happen.
Didn't you know that computers are meant to be kept serpent free? It says that at the front of the manual.
ReplyDeleteDidn't it say something about serpents and apple-macs in the bible

ReplyDeleteHa Ha cl=d ...... You see I notice that but when I read what I wrote a few days later it is full of silly errors. I know it is the nature of the human brain that it likes to unjumble things. But it would help if it allowed me the opportunity to correct my errors prior to posting.
DeleteYou dont get silly errors in books really they are all proof read out of them, but I am starting to think it would be more interesting if they were left in.
Oooooooo I have gained a new follower I will go and investigate
Ah yes I have sussed my new follower they have a blog I started to follow the other day, so they have very kindly followed back. I always think it is a good sign when someone follows my blog (as I am a bit mad)... Anyway I was quite impressed on first impressions so we will see how it all goes
