GREMLINS ARE GRINNING!

<<< Yes folks that's my computer screen, wedged in by a mouse mat, standing at 45 degrees to the norm, so that I can use my rather strangely behaving, somewhat confused pooter! A rather unusual way to read yesterdays post, but at least it has saved the rather overstretched neck muscles.
I rang my P.C. (no not politically correct) G.P this morning and he'd never come across a problem like this, so I got in touch with specialist Consultant ... see it's very similar to grades in our NHS. He too was rather bemused by my strangely behaving confuser. He tried to set up "remote viewing" a bit like an endoscopy done from many miles away, but the patient was having non of that ... "Thank you but ... no!" It's auto immune system did not wish to be inspected by a total stranger that it had never heard of before. I suppose it has a right to refuse, but its owner was far from amused. I wonder if our computer savvy monarch has ever had such problems? ... Somehow I doubt it. She may be on "Twitter" which I'm not but  anyway ... that had muggins here in for the rest of the day, because my repaired Rover had a use by, out of date tax disc. Now applying on-line for a new one is easy ... if your confuser is co-operating. I gave up the head on one side malarchy of yesterday and wedged the computer screen into a position that was at least, readable. Suffice to say as the sunset (unseen) set I had managed to tax the car via electronic, detailed questionnaires. She, is now road legal! I've had an email from D.V.L.A confirming this, which I have printed off in order to be able to show the police ... should I be stopped at any time over the next five 'working'  days by our local, law enforcement officers. So at least the gremlins cannot maliciously grin at that one! However, I still have a computer that has an odd angle on life and a problem as yet not resolved. Needless to say, no forays today out into the world of sheep and mountain scenes, so no new photo's of a day that has been lovely and sunny. The pranksters, the anti modern technology (invisible) gangsters are still playing havoc with my computer! Yes, they are grinning all over their invisible faces, hidden in dark corner places,  one can only hope that, to quote The Beatles "A little help from my friends."
normal service will resume soon.
But don't bank on it, Dafad seems to be a magnet for things going wrong at the moment.
