        Oi! You talking to me?

          Giles: you really should meet my dad and watch his PC skills… Told him to aim his mouse at the mid of the screen and he physically picked up the thing and placed it against it... My uncle witnessed that as well and I honestly didn't think either of us was gonna survive the 15 minutes of breathless laughter which ensued...

            I once had to explain to an older lady in our office how to comply with the command, "press any key to continue".  She couldn't find the "Any" button on the keyboard.

            If you're past that stage, you're fine, Giles.

                Yeah, I remember that, too.  That's why I thought she was joking when she called me to ask for help.  I nearly hung up on her.

                    Actually, she is going away with her family (20 of them) to a Villa in Spain.  I was invited, but quite frankly I'd  rather chew my toes off and sprinkle the raw stumps with salt unfortunately someone has to run the business….. 😶 😢

                    Actually, it’s 5 nights (4 days in Spain) and there will be 23 of us and of course I am delighted devastated that G isn’t joining us, I will just have to drink his share of cava…
                    😘

                    Thanks for good wishes, I am looking forward to it  🙂

                    AKA Mrs G

                                      Depends how many days has this been going now? I'm usually limited by having to work the next day. My usual hangover cure consists of lying quietly in a darkened room and hoping.

                                      Failing that - two dissolvable Vitamin B tablets in drinking yoghurt, topped up with cream soda.

                                      Although I did manage a 7hr shift at work today by drinking some green tea, moving slowly and glaring at anyone who looked like they might cause problems. (And swearing off alcohol for the foreseeable future, which could be 24hrs depending on how tomorrows shift goes…).

                                      This has turned into a bit of a ramble, sorry.

                                          I think I might be able to top that one Seul…

                                          • Drinking until 12ish last night, mainly low quality beers and a Pims/ Gin mix that has left a riotous headache, and an extremely dry mouth.

                                          • Got to bed around 2, after watching Match Of The Day and some random Korean movie that I've been meaning to watch for ages, and now remember nothing about.

                                          • Woke up at 5:35, unable to sleep any more due to aforementioned dry mouth and headache.

                                          • Got up, and came down stairs, woke Tom in the process and so was joined by a loud and excitable 6 year old.

                                          • Got to go to the library to return some books this morning (I feel less like moving than I do sawing my own face off), followed by TWO kids birthday parties consecutively.

                                          • If you never hear from me again, I was either the murderer or the victim.

                                          Made in England, clothed in Japan, fed in America and drunk in Belgium !

                                            It's 8:15AM on the east coast in America and Seul and Mega have me falling out of bed laughing. The baby comment is so true, I always get a baby directly near my seat when I fly to CA, it's happened the last 3 consecutive times.
