Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Will that persuade you to upgrade to an iMac or a MacBookPro at a later stage?

Well I took a piccy.
All still seems ok, but obviously there is some software that's not all that up to date. Still, it does seem ok. And I'm now waiting for usb wifi adaptor to be able to put it out of the way

Messing about with a Tosh Folio Tablet (loaner for a month from Toshiba).
Not as intuitive as an iPad, but not too bad - good video, good wifi, good bookreader.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
After 15 years faithful service our old Toshiba TV is no more.
Now we have the nice new 32" Samsung with HD.
Now have to see if there is enough left in the kitty to get a V+HD box installed.

Perhaps it's time for your Mum to go and see her doctor again. My doctor prescribed a higher dose of medication which now seems to be working.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
We went to the fantastic wedding of a young friend yesterday and both the bride and her mother wore Doc Martins. Very tastefully done of course. The Bride's were white with flowers and matched her long white wedding dress and tiara beautifully.
