COMPUTERS!

My system at home got hit by a virus (turns out my anti-virus hadn't been updating) and has trashed my desktop PC twice! At least I'm getting good at re-building, and I didn't lose too much data. But it's tedious - to say nothing of trying to find all those installation CDs that you thought you'd never use again. (also interesting to see what you can't get from the Internet -- Epson seem to be specially bad at this).

Anyway, I think the crisis is (probably) over -- I'm living in hope!

It's sunny and cold here today after last night's torrential rain. At least the roads are OK as it looks like we may have to rush off to Wales sometime soon ...
