Second weekend in March
What a nightmare! I decided that I would customise my blog, add a rural Bucks photo and a brief profile and then transpose the next instalment.The idea of headings seemed a good one too.
My machine threw an absolute wobbly at all of these ideas.My blog refused to receive another word and when I said it was being unreasonable it told me to cleanse my browser. I was absolutely sure my machine was as pure as the driven snow and anyway what is my browser? I thought you, the reader was probably my browser and I feel pretty sure that your cleanliness is beyond question.These computer helplines are all very well as a title but the description is not accurate. The problem is that you need more than one screen, mouse and telephone wire.Why don't they invent their own words instead of using terms that mean something completely normal in the real world for the lay user?
Mouse? Browser? And once into helpline, the jargon is unintelligible!
Anyway...
To cleanse one's browser, take a good hour after deciding that they probably meant that I had to clear a bit of space for my next instalment.So I wiped out the first two which was a shame as they contained the explanation of why I was messing about with a blog at all.The blog would still not accept the latest input.I consulted technical whizz kids in the family, gave away my precious password and Lo and Behold from a distance of several miles THEY could add on to my blog site but I still couldn't. Back to helpline, to discover a little notice saying that my blog provider had been having trouble accepting entries from my net company and it was working on the problem.
Heart rate slowed and the next day I found that I could post some text and I can now begin to use headings.When I am fully out of shock I shall re-instate my earlier entries because they did explain what I was trying to do.
