10am this morning I decided to compile and print out some information that my neighbours and I will need prior to us all meeting up tonight to fight a proposed building application.

I was lulled into a false sense of having accomplished all I set out to do in under an hour. Silly me.

Sent all the docs to the printer and waited, and waited.

Checked printer.

Out of Ink!

Remembered getting replacement cartridges but couldn't remember where I put them.

Checked the logical place, then the less logical places...... sat down and sulked staring whilst staring at a set of 6 drawers.

"Ah Ha" I thought. I'm going to play clever here and check the last drawer first 'cause what you are looking for is always in the last place you look. The dang things, hidden away under my paper supply were smirking at me in the last drawer I checked!!!!!!!!!

Replaced the cartridges and sent the docs to the printer and waited.

Took out and replaced the cartridges again....sent the docs to the printer and waited.

Switched printer off and on again. All that VM advise kicked in.......and all the lights came on so.....sent the docs to the printer and waited.

Waning light came on and I found that the printer had no WiFi signal.

Hunted for the clever WiFi password I knew I had written down somewhere............

1pm password was still hiding from me so had my lunch.

Still munching my butty I had a brainwave and checked in my 'Oh so unhelpful' VM folder and under the obscure title WiFi/SH3 there was the sodding password.

Put in the password and all seemed well so I sent the docs to the printer and ........

Printed 2 pages then stopped, at least I knew where my printing paper supply was hiding after my earlier search for the cartridges so soon sent the docs to the printer

3pm Finished printing out 25 copies, couldn't find my stapler sod it!........

so had a very large G&T.
Lol know just how you feel jo
