FOOTNOTES: With immaculate timing, my laptop crashed totally, just at the moment when I need it most, that is, over the weekend. Whilst Chaplin listened interestingly to the stream of curses and yelps of frustration I was emanating, the computer remained stubbornly dead. Now, I am not a complete admirer of the avalanche of devices that have descended upon us over the last few years, and indeed I look at my young friends latest handheld pieces of electronic wizardry, and wonder how they cope, let alone understand them. But, and I have had a couple of days to realise how big a but it is, I have become incredible reliant on my laptop. Apart from using it to write this with, I also write short stories, order food on line, bank online, order my medical prescriptions and have them delivered, to the extent that I have forgotten the last time I visited the surgery. The internet is a constant source for research, verification and a hundred other uses. Being without for even such a short time has been a salutary lesson. To the extent that when my local engineer informed me that my computer was old and virtually dead on its feet, rather like myself, I agreed to a replacement. So next week we shall be waiting with bated breath for the arrival of the latest in technology. In the meantime a temporary repair has enabled me to complete this weeks column. Go safely and enjoy this lovely early summer.
